The aircraft was delivered in 1945 to 36th squadron of the RAAF as A65-123 and was used to transport Queen Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh around the country in 1954.




During this time it was briefly flown by Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh (Video of this at top).

It continued in RAAF service until 1968 when it was transferred to the Royal Australian navy and designated N2-123 coded NW for its home base at HMAS Albatros.

After the Navy retired it's Dakotas this aircraft was broken up with only the cockpit being saved. Since then this section has been completely restored to its original condition and has been preserved in storage for over thirty years.

The section is mounted on a wheeled stand and can be shipped world wide safely via sea freight.





This section is a historic museum piece in excellent condition and ready to display.

The section should fit in a sealed 20ft HC container for shipping.
Asking US $42,000. (GST applicable if sold within Australia)

Early RAF WW2 reflector gun sight, mainly used on the Supermarine spitfire & Hawker Hurricane during the Battle of Britain but also used on other types.
