de Havilland Canada DHC-4 A4 Caribou

10/31/2011. The second of 29 Caribou's acquired by the RAAF, this aircraft was delivered on March 12, 1964. Together with the first (s/n A4-134) and third (s/n A4-147) aircraft it arrived at RAAF Richmond on April 22, after a ferry flight from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, that took almost 97 flying hours. It was operated in many countries, including Vietnam, Timor and Papua New Guinea. After withdrawal of service it was donated to the Australian War Memorial (AWM) in November 2009 and is presently stored at the AWM Annex in Mitchell, Australian Capital Territory, with its outer wings removed.
