VH-AGU seen during the time it was used to test the Interscan microwave landing system being developed jointly with the US. A light was fitted to the nose to help those on the ground track its approach path during testing at Melbourne-Tullamarine. Despite being adopted by ICAO as the world standard in 1978, Interscan came to halt 1994 when the US switched to a GPS based system. VH-AGU in the meantime had been sold in 1979 for charter work. Since 2013 it has been on the airshow circuit painted as a USAF AC-47 "Spooky" gunship.

VH-PIT was registered in December 1963 and converted in 1971 to carry a passenger. Until a 1977 accident it was working as a crop duster but at the time of the photo was a glider tug.

Looking smart in the second ( and much nicer ) "Dayglow" livery. The aircraft was eventually sold to Mandala Airlines as PK-MVU and crashed on 24 July 1992 killing 7 crew and 63 passengers.

One of the few ex-TAA Viscount 700's to miss the scrapper's torch in Australia, it found it's way back to the U.K. but was eventually stripped of useful parts and scrapped at Southend in February 1970.
