Photo Comment

N8218H at TAA's maintenance base at Sydney. Airlift's DC-7s were operated to Australia under US military contracts. Their visits to Sydney airport were usually the result mechanical problems and they would otherwise transit Sydney at the RAAF base at Richmond. N8218H has been "zapped" with a kangaroo stencil, which was done to most foreign visitors to Richmond.
