Here having just arrived for attention by AT(E)L, this Viscount was originally Austrian Airlines' OE-LAG, delivered in 2.60 as "Frans Schubert". Modified with the under-belly radome for radar development work by the RRE Pershore, she will perhaps be better remembered in the later RAE "Raspberry Ripple" colours...

VH-TVL flew with Trans-Australian Airlines until August 1969 when it was placed in storage at Brisbane Airport. A ban on the export Viscount 700 aircraft resulted in it being sold in 1971 to the Toowoomba Aviation Museum at Wellcamp, on the edge of Toowoomba. The museum was more like an overgrown scrapyard in 1977 and in 1978 VH-TVL was sold to a Toowoomba scrap dealer. It survived in an ever-diminishing condition until it was moved to a caravan park at Miles, Queensland, in 2013. It has since been cleaned up, repainted and fitted with dummy wings and engines as a tourist attraction.
