Aircraft Carrier
Somewhere In Northwest Australia – Returning to its base in Northwestern Australia on one motor, and making a belly landing, this royal Australian Air Force Beaufighter completed a successful mission in Timor. Now, riding atop an aircraft-carrier-on-wheels, the warbird is heading for a repair shop for reconditioning. It will soon fight from the skies again, with the Beaufighter Squadron that has rung up a total of 60 destroyed enemy aircraft, 4 probables, and 61 damaged, in the first ten months of 1943.
