Publicity photo probably taken by Vickers ahead of VH-TVA's delivery to Australia. It never entered service after suffering a training accident at Mangalore, Victoria, on October 31, 1954. The crew was attempting a three-engine take-off when control was lost. This photo was added on 6 October 2022, and has since been viewed 464 times. |
