VH-INA      'Pengana'                                        c/n  12252

                                                       Photograph from Gus Grulke collection, via Peter Gates.  Archerfield, Brisbane, late 1940s.                                    

                                                       This aircraft was built as a C-47A-5-DK (42-92450) which went to the RAAF as A65-35 with
                                                       the war time call sign VHCUI.   It was civilianized and allocated to Australian National Airways
                                                       in 1947.  Ten years later, and for some reason not entirely clear, it was re-registered VH-INI.
                                                       It is possible that ANA wanted the registration for a new purchase, possibly a DC-6.  In the event,
                                                       VH-INA was not re-allocated until a DC-6B took it in 1964.
