VH-TVO Model
745 'David Lindsay'
c/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.
