Also taken this day at Proserpine was Ansett's then new Convair 440 VH-BZF. The crowds may have turned out to see the new plane. Ansett owned the nearby Hayman Island resort. For a many years it received an Ansett flying boat service from Sydney via Brisbane. When landplanes took over, Proserpine became the transit airport holiday makers.

This aircraft was built as C-47-DL 42-5635 for the RAF (allocated serial FD769), but the aircraft was not taken up and went to BOAC (which operated the aircraft in RAF colours). It went to the newly established Israeli air force in 1950 as 4X-FAG/1401. The Israeli borrowed the aircraft to Uganda probably from the early or mid sixties until 1973. It then returned to the Israeli air force as 4X-FMF/040. It is now preserved at Eilat airport (with fake registration 4X-AES).

This is a D-Day veteran that was also active over occupied Germany. It made a forced landing at Eindhoven in the already liberated part of the Netherlands in 1945 and, after the war had ended, remained in the Netherlands to be used by various airliners as PH-DAB. In 1965, the aircraft went to the Indonesian navy, until 1968. In that year it went back to civil aviation as PK-RDA.
