Description This Lockheed Ventura A59-73 was damaged by fire at Gove in 1945. It was brought to Darwin in April 1995 to be rebuilt by the RAAF as a public relations exercise. Virtually nothing has been accomplished in the last seventeen years in Darwin and it was decided some years ago to return the aircraft to its display enclosure at Gove airport. Earlier this year the hangar housing A59-73 at RAAF Darwin was demolished and the Ventura started its long return journey to Gove. In eight months it has moved all of twenty five kilometers from RAAF Darwin to the stockyards the other side of Noonamah as shown in this picture. Maybe provision will be made in the Commonwealth budget next year to enable this piece of Australian history to return home.
