I'd wanted to know what the streamlined bulge under the forward fuselage was for and David Carter has come up with a good explanation: dual long-range ADF antennas. This makes sense as in the days before LORAN, INS and GPS, the aircraft's position could be fixed by use of intersecting radials from two or more ADF stations. Especially useful on long trans-pacific flights which is what CPAL, the original operator of this aircraft, used to do.

This was an occasional visitor to Heathrow in the mid 1970's and is seen here parked up Southside. Built in 1952 it remained in service until 1980 when it was destroyed in a ground fire at Alameda NAS. Scanned from a slide.

This was an occasional visitor to Heathrow in the mid 1970's and is seen here parked up Southside. Built in 1952 it remained in service until 1980 when it was destroyed in a ground fire at Alameda NAS. Scanned from a slide.
