VH-USY served with Australian National Airways from 1936 to 1947. Sold for scrap in 1948, it was converted into a caravan. The front was hitched onto the bed of a truck, the rear supported on four tyres (two doubles) under the name Laze-away Land Cruiser. It is being preserved as an aviation relic and at the time of the photo was squeezed into a suburban front yard.
