VH-BHC  Douglas DC-3CS1C3G                             (c/n  13982/25427)                                 

                           

                              Four DC-3s (VH-BHB, -BHC, BHD and -BHE)* were operated by the Zinc Corporation based
                              at Broken Hill in 1947.   Oddly, pictures of them are virtually non existent. -BHC is seen above at
                              Blackbushe in this blurry shot by Dave Freeman in October 1948 after it had been flown to the UK
                              to the parent company Silver City Airways to become G-ALFO.    Below is a (terrible) copy of a
                              mining magazine picture showing the other three at Broken Hill in 1948.
