My uncle worked as an engineer for Ansett ANA at Mascot NSW post 2nd World War. Where was the photo taken? Precursor to 747 design?
Carvair
Aviation Traders ATL-98 Carvair ~ based on Douglas DC-4 (C-54/R5D/Skymaster)
the first choice for flying champion racehorses about the country. Normally the Carvairs were engaged in night cargo, particularly to Tasmania.

If I had a bit more pilot seniority with Ansett I might have kept a co pilot seat warm in a Carvair. As it was. the F27 was a nice substitute.
