VH-TVO Vickers 745 Viscount
'David Lindsay'
(/n 227)
This shot, from the Peter Gates
collection, was taken at the manufacturer's airfield at Hurn
in
the U.K., before the aircraft left for Australia. VH-TVO was a
'stop gap' machine
originally intended for Capital
Airlines (as
N7465) but not taken up when
Capital was
taken over by United. It was owned by Vickers and
leased to TAA for a scant year
before being
sold to Phillipine Airlines as PI-C772. It finally wound up
with Skyline
in Sweden as
SE-CNK ansd was scrapped in 1976.
