'Hawdon' departing after the Australian International Airshow. I had the great pleasure of travelling to Queensland and back in this aircraft for the Federation Airshows in the Outback in 2001. A grand old lady!

One of two DC-3s on display at the parachute jumping base of the Escuela de Fuerzas Especiales No.9 (hence the "EFE-9" on the fin), along the Pan-American highway north of Latacunga. A photo of the other one can be found here. Neither aircraft could be positively identified because all data plates had been removed, but this one is suggested to be FAE4341, ex PP-ANP. This may have undergone a conversion during its civil years in Brazil in the 1950s, explaining the pax door. (Nikon D610 + Nikkor 18-35mm f/3.5-4.5G ED AF-S).

Norman Gunston was a fictitious TV celebrity played by actor Garry McDonald. The character was past its peak when a TV network took Gunston on the road for a magazine style TV show called Gunston's Australia. Travmar's VH-SBO was his means of transport. After the show was completed, the DC-3 was stored at Bankstown airport in the Gunston livery. It was badly damaged on September 15, 1982, when a suicidal pilot slammed into the ground near it. -SBO's remains ended up on the fire dump, save its nose, which has been preserved.

Back home at the Qantas maintenance base following a flight to commemorate the 60th annivesary of the first service by Trans Australia Airlines using this very aircraft! The original flight departed Melbourne/ RAAF Laverton for Sydney. Laverton had to be used as the sealed runways at Essendon were being constructed at the time.
