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.

KLM's DC-3 PH-ARB "Buizerd" escaped from Schiphol during the Nazi invasion of Holland in early May 1940. It was camouflaged and re-registered G-AGBD and flown by Dutch and BOAC crews on runs to neutral Lisbon and Shannon. Returned to KLM postwar as PH-TBD. To Skyways as G-AGBD in August 1946. From KLM 60 years ago.

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.

Originally delivered to the USAAF as C-47A 42-24080, then transferred to the USN as an R4D-5. It was then modified to a "Super DC-3" and became an R4D-8, and finally a C-47H when designations were standardized. This one was in CMH picking up an AWOL.
