Notes:
Close cropped view of the nose of Lockheed Lodestar C60A VH-XUS Cn 18-2388, taken at the Wanaka Transport Museum (NZWF) in New Zealand on 04Apr2010. The aircraft is surrounded by vintage cars and trucks. I did a 0.2 hour sight-seeing flight over (new) Parliament House Canberra in this aircraft on 13Mar1993, and I also photographed this aircraft while she was on static display at the Inaugural 1992 Avalon Airshow, in Victoria, Australia. The aircraft was painted in USAAC livery (and the 'Rooster' Nose Art wording was 'Flew the Coop'). She was originally delivered to the USAAC as 42-55951 in 1943. (When Civil Registered, the aircraft was used as a ‘Flying Bordello’ by a ‘Chicken Ranch’ in USA.) I believe she went to the Wanaka Transport Museum around 1997.
