An
Adastra pilot seemingly on oxygen during a photographic survey in a
Hudson. Other photos taken on the same day, 2 March 1960, show that
the aircraft has the original four nose window configuration so this
can only be VH-AGS which was the only Adastra Hudson to retain the original
nose window configuration. Close
examination of the instruments reveals that the aircraft is actually
on the ground with engines shut down! The
placard over the crawlway states; "Nose must not be occupied during
take-off or landing". The pilot is believed to be Ken Rowlands.
