Photo Comment

Built to a 1942 order for the USAAF as 42-99331, this aircraft evidently went to the China-Burma-India theatre of war as after the war it was civilianised in India as VT-CDL, one of about 100 such. Imported to Australia and beautifully restored, it was first registered as VH-NLR on 16 April 1999.
