Photo Comment

This 1947 Mallard had a turbine conversion by Frakes in 1972 before sold to West Coast Air Services in 1975. Merged into Air BC, this is another Mallard that left Canada for Australia in 1983. First with Air Whitsunday (VH-JAW), the aircraft is current with Paspaley Aviation, a division of the Paspaley Pearling Company, as VH-PPT at the time of uploading.
