Photo Comment

With a good supply of airframes post WW2, the Torrance CA. based Transland Aircraft had a steady business converting surplus aircraft into crop dusters. They subsequently developed their own design, the Ag-1 and by 1954 the Ag-2, the prototype of which made its first flight in October 1956. Too expensive to compete with the war surplus conversions, only three were built, N8232H which first flew in 1959 being the last. The prototype survives in New Zealand having spent many years in Uruguay but N8232H crashed in Panama in August 1963.
