Pic from Down Under 17/03/02

Sorry I haven’t been with it the past couple of days!
Anyway, here’s a classic pic of the now defunct Ansett, a Shorts Sandringham! My grandfather used to board thes planes after their long flights, and fly them up to Palm Beach maintanence center where he would go over them, fixing little things and clean them up ready for the next trip! At least that’s what the company thought, actual fact, he took them up to PB and slept in them, then got up and cooked breakfast (They had a really nice galley), and flew them back down for the next flight!
Hahahahaha, what a life!
This photo is circa 1958

Foot note, the colours seen here were the same as when I flew in an F-27 of theirs 20 years later!

I can do it, but I need your support!
