VH-FAC  Lockheed  18-07 Lodestar                 (c/n  2553)

                              

                                     This aircraft was a Fawcett Aviation machine (hence the VH-FA sequence) which was leased to
                                     Gibbes Sepik Airways in (what was then) Papua.  This shot was taken at Jackson's Strip in Port
                                     Moresby in 1951.   VH-FAC was sold to Fieldair in New Zealand in 1956 as ZK-BMC, and
                                     was converted  into an aerial top dressing aircraft.  A more complete history of it can be found at:
