The first Australian P-166 was demonstrated to Connellan Airways at Alice Springs before being delivered to Papua New Guinea. While the P-166 had reasonable sales success in Australia, Connellan did not buy them. VH-PAP became VH-PNC in July 1961. This photo was added on 28 June 2019, and has since been viewed 282 times. |
