707-138 VH-EBG at Mascot, probably April-November 1961.
Qantas Super Constellation VH-EAA can be seen with its windows taped
over behind the BOAC Comet G-APDC. By this time VH-EAA had been modified
to a convertible passenger/freighter but it was withdrawn from service
in April 1961 only to be put back in service in December 1961, presumably
for the Christmas peak period. VH-EBG departed for the US on 19 November
1961 for conversion to 707-138B. Picture:
