IWM say this is a prototype of the Do 217J-1, a heavy but nevertheless effective night fighter. The airframe served with 4./NJG 3 as 3C-MT and was then supplied to the Italian air force which received twelve Do 217Js to equip one squadron of 60° Gruppo. The unit did poorly and this one was apparently lost in August 1943. Photo from: Imperial War Museums

The oldest Empire flying boat in BOAC wartime markings, seen landing on the Lagos Lagoon. Canopus was operated by Qantas between Singapore and Karachi until early 1942. Scrapped at Hythe in October 1946 after flying just over 15,000 hours in just over ten eventful years. Photo from: Imperial War Museums

The sole Parnall Prawn, a small flying boat. The engine nacelle could be tilted 22 degrees to keep its very small propeller clear of the water. Perhaps it never flew. The photo must have been taken in the second half of 1930 or perhaps a little later. In the background is a three-engine monoplane flying boat which must be the one and only Blackburn Sydney, serial N241, which first flew at Brough on 18 July 1930. Photo from: Imperial War Museums

Two-seat reconnaissance fighter built of an aluminium-iron alloy called Alferium. One liquid-cooled Hispano-Suiza 12Hb engine of 500 hp, maximum speed given as 240 km/h (150 mph). The sole prototype gave a 'pretty impressive display' at Villacoublay in September 1927 but the French air force dropped its requirement for such an aircraft.

USAAC aircraft from new. Arrived in Australia in April 1942. Mainly operated between Brisbane and Papua New Guinea. Handed over to the airline ANA to operate while retaining the Directorate of Air Transport Allied Air Forces radio callsign VHCCF. Force landed March 9, 1944 near Molesworth, Victoria by which time the camouflage had been removed. ANA bought the wreck and VH-ARA was allocated postwar. However it was not rebuilt and used for spares instead. Photo from: State Library of South Australia

Arrived in Australia in 1919 with a Le Rhone rotary engine. Became G-AUCH in 1921. Struck off register in 1922 after the owner suffered serious injuries in the crash of an Avro 504. New owner rebuilt the Bristol in 1930 with a Gipsy engine and new registration, VH-UQI. Used for air racing. Grounded in 1936 when a certificate of airworthiness was refused. Now preserved at Harry Butler Memorial, Minlaton, South Australia in its original 1919 markings and a Le Rhone rotary. Photo from: State Library of South Australia
