VH-GAK  Douglas DC-3CS1C3G                    (c/n  13624)

                                 

                                     This was the fformer VH-ANW.     In 1958 Guinea Airways decided to re-registered their DC-3s
                                     in the VH-GA- series.   When this carrier became part of the Ansett Transport Industries conglom-
                                     erate, the DC-3 reverted to its prior registration of VH-ANW (in January 1960).  The shot above
                                     was taken by John Hopton at Essendon in 1958.       Below is a nice color image of -GAK at Port
                                     Lincoln sent by Bernard Morey showing himself (as a six or seven year old?) arriving home at that
                                     airport from Adelaide in September 1959.     Can you imaging scampering across an airport tarmac
                                     today?
