    This is ANA's second Douglas DC-3 (c/n 2003), VH-UZK, "Kurana". Kurana was delivered to ANA in December 1937, and would serve ANA until September 11, 1939 when it was briefly impressed into RAAF service wearing the serial A30-2 while flying with 8 Squadron. Kurana was returned to ANA service in February 1940. She would serve with ANA until November 8, 1948. On that date while flying from Melbourne-Essendon to Denilquin, the aircraft was seen passing Mount Macedon township at low altitude. The aircraft then struck cloud-covered Mount Macedon near the summit. While 19 passengers survived the crash, sadly, both the pilot and co-pilot perished.

    MORE INFO →DH89 Dragon Rapide ZK ACO "Tainui", The aircraft was named the “Tainui” after one of the canoes in the Maori migration to New Zealand. It carried the first all-through air mail from England to New Zealand, with covers being stamped at Mildenhall, Melbourne and Palmerston North. Squadron Leader J D Hewitt, Flying Officer C E Kay and Frank Steward were the first to fly between Great Britain and New Zealand. The official time for the flight was 12hrs 9min, and the average speed was about 130mph. (Manawatu Heritage)
