NZ3501 showing the damage caused when it collided with Ventura NZ4518 on March 1, 1945. Four of the five on the Ventura parachuted to safety but the pilot was unable to bail out in time. NZ3501 flew subsequent to the collision but it is not known the permanency of the repairs. It was at Ohakea in March 1946 before being flown to Hobsonville to become an instructional airframe. It ended its days on the Whenuapai fire dump after being towed back there. Photo from: Air Force Museum of New Zealand
