VH-TVH      Model 756       'George Bass'                                           c/n  146

                                               Essendon, 1958

                                              Following the success of the model 720s, the airline placed a  'follow-on' order with Vickers
                                              for half a dozen more Viscounts.  The first of these is seen above.  Three of these 756 model
                                              aircraft were equipped with wing mounted slipper tanks enabling the aircraft to operate the long
                                              stage between Perth and Adelaide over the vast expanses of the Nullabor Plain.   Greg Banfield
                                              took a shot of -TVH (below) at Mascot in 1964 when it was wearing the then standard 'TAA -
                                              The Nation's Jetline' titling.    As I did for VH-TVG, I'll reproduce a close-up of the rego so
                                              that viewers can see that is was, in fact, really VH-TVH!    The Viscount was scrapped in 1970.
