P2-ANY was sold in the US as N55892 in 1979. Before reaching Papua New Guinea, -ANY had served with the USAAF in the Philippines and spent a little time on the UK register as G-AJTO. It was sold in Australia as VH-INF and given Wright Cyclone engines. When it went to Butler Air Transport as VH-AKR the Pratt and Whitney engines were refitted. Next stop was Papua New Guinea with Ansett-MAL as VH-MAN and then to the PNG register as P2-MAN. It finally became P2-ANY in December 1975.
