The RAAF took on charge a single Viking on loan from the RAF during nuclear weapons testing. Allocated the serial A82-1 but it was not applied to the aircraft. It was returned to the UK government in 1951 after four years' service in Australia. VL321 was disposed of in 1955 becoming G-AOCH. Photo from: National Archives of Australia

The 8th Beaufort built. Shipped to Australia as a pattern aircraft for Australian production. The unreliability of the Taurus engine and fears of a supply disruption saw it replaced with the reliable Pratt and Whitney R-1830. The RAAF used this engine on Dakotas, Catalinas and Hudsons and it was being licensed-built in Australia. Bristol in the UK separately produced an R-1830 powered aircraft until the Taurus problems were overcome. L4448 received the RAAF serial A9-1001. It crashed on February 27, 1943 at Darwin.

The only Beaufighter powered by Wright GR-2600 engines, The nacelles extended past the trailing edge of the wings to accommodate the larger engines. Conversion was a safeguard against disruption to the supply of Bristol Hercules engines for Australian-made Beaufighters. Performance was poorer than Hercules-powered aircraft and engine supply was not disrupted, so the project was dropped. A19-2, a British-built aircraft and a combat veteran, was scrapped.

The RAAF received two RAF B-29s for use during nuclear weapons testing in Australia. WW353, which was allocated the serial A76-1 (never applied), did most of the flying while WW354 (A76-2) was held in reserve. Both were scrapped, WW353 at Tocumwal, NSW, in 1962. It had been sold in 1956 for scrap by the RAF, which had taken back the aircraft. A private attempt in 1957 to sell it as a flyable aircraft came to nought. A third B-29 for the RAAF, WW349, was damaged in the UK and never arrived. Photo from: National Archives of Australia

One of the 10 former Eastern Air Lines DC-2s bought by the Australian government at the start of World War II to bolster the RAAF's transport capability. After the outbreak of the Pacific War, A30-12 was camouflaged and the red centre of the roundel was painted out to avoid confusion with the Japanese roundel. Postwar A30-12 was sold to Marshall Airways and is believed to have been stripped of useful parts at Essendon airport. The rest was scrapped. Photo from: Townsville City Library
