Photo Comment

In the era of this photo BOAC operated a quicker service with Lancastrians and a comfortable but slow service with Hythes on the UK-Australia route. Both services terminated in Sydney. At the end of 1948 Constellations replaced both types. G-AGJN was scrapped in 1953. Photo from: Whites Aviation Collection/Alexander Turnbull Library
