Description
English: Temora Aviation Museum VH-KOY/A16-112 Lockheed 414 Hudson IV c/n 414-6041. Painted in the livery of No 32 Squadron A16-211 "The Tojo Busters", which had the distinction of serving all through the Milne Bay campaign. Transfered to No.2 Squadron at Batchelor in April 1943. The Hudson's nose markings were added when it was having an overhaul at Wagga. The markings indicated mast-height attacks on a Japanese cruiser and a destroyer respectively. During the former incident, a head-on attack, the cruiser's barrage even included its main 8 inch guns. "The Tojo Busters" retained her black undersurfaces throughout her service life which ended after a crash landing at Millingimbi on the 6 May 1943 as a result of enemy action over Taberfane - Day 2 Defence Force Air Show 4-5 October 2008.
