Registered L2-27 between October 24, 1941 and January 17, 1945. Shipped from the Dutch Indies to the UK for Prince Bernhard, arriving at Liverpool on August 6, 1942. To the 1316 (Allied) Flight, mostly flown by Prince Bernhard. Transferred to the Dutch Government again on January 17, 1945 with fake serial EX735. Late 1945, the aircraft moved from Hendon to Valkenburg, where the 1 TransVA was founded. The Lockheeds carried the (paper) serials AX236, BX238, CX245, DX246 and EX753, but these weren't always applied. T-5 eventually crashed. Photo from W.
