An executive transport of Proctor and Gamble for many years, this aircraft was delivered to the USAAF in 1943, and acquired by P & G in 1953. It's seen here with Viewmaster windows and the C-47 freight doors replaced by a pax door with stairs. Later became C-FPAG and N8021Z (1), fate unclear.

Ex RAAF, VH-AGU's first years on the register starting in 1959 were in the aerial survey role. It then became the test aircraft for the Interscan microwave landing system before being retired in 1979. Resurrected in the 1980s, it passed though the hands of a long list of small charter operators before find a new life as a warbird in USAF Vietnam War markings.
