Faded serial 6112 and yellow "AR" still visible on rear fuselage. Also still has '42' (last two of the c/n) on the nose. The SAAF Museum salvaged this Ventura from a farm near Saxonwold, South Africa in early 1976. It was trucked to AFB Snake Valley, Pretoria for storage and restoration. In 1994 the Ventura was moved to AFB Swartkop and displayed as seen here. It was still there by June 2021.

Built in Jul 1942 for the RAF as Ventura II AJ311, but immediately taken on charge by the USAAF as an RB-34 and used for static tests re lightning strikes. Struck off charge Sep 1946. Loaned to Pueblo Museum by 1986 and incorrectly painted as "AF311" in dual nationality markings. Serial later corrected to AJ311.
