Brought to Australia straight off the production line to help sell War Bonds. Later used to train Qantas pilots to fly Lancastrians. The RAAF had two Lancasters in Australia when the war ended. A66-1 was scrapped and A66-2 (W4783), a 90-mission veteran known around the country as G for George, was preserved at the Australian War Memorial. Photo from: National Archives of Australia

Used for war bonds tours of Australia and New Zealand. Famous for being flown under the Sydney Harbour Bridge on October 22, 1943. Ran off runway on landing at Evans Head on October 26, 1943 sustaining severe damage, but was repaired. Later used to train Qantas Lancastrian pilots. Scrapped in 1948 after the RAAF decided to preserve its other Lancaster, W4783 (A66-2), because unlike Queenie, it was a combat veteran. Photo from: Air Force Museum of New Zealand
