Survived New Guinea and withdrawn from active service of when the type was then wrecked on the 11/02/43 at Casino NSW. Capt J Ewing 0-433384 or 64 was the designated pilot who had engine failure on takeoff:IRC has off LEFT 16/02/43. Rumor has it that a 1st Lt Rupert Selman 9thFS/49th FG was supposed to be in the rear seat of this "hack"
