This is the third DC-3 to be imported into Australia. It was purchased by ANA and first entered the Australian Register as VH-ABR in 1938 It spent its wartime registered as A30-3 with the RAAF. It was taken over in 1957 by Ansett-ANA and had a further spell with Airlines of South Australia in 1961. It was retired in 1975, but remained under Ansett ownership until 2008.

This aircaft is operated by Air Atlantique on behalf of Thales for radar development. A jet APU can be seen fitted to the fuselage and this is used solely to power the radar equipment. An unusual vertical stabiliser is also fitted behind the tail wheel. Strange that this old aircraft, made in 1944, is used for developing advanced radar 60 years later.
