EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures the iconic Vickers 818 Viscount VH-TVR in all its glory, showcasing the sleek design and powerful presence of this historic aircraft. Originally flown by Cubana de Aviacion before being acquired by Trans Australia Airlines (TAA) in 1962, this particular Viscount model holds a special place in aviation history.
Piloted by John Murray, the VH-TVR was a reliable workhorse for TAA from 1962 to 1970, serving passengers with efficiency and style. Its distinctive livery and smooth lines made it a standout in the skies during its time in service.
Now preserved at the Moorabbin Air Museum, this Vickers Viscount serves as a reminder of a bygone era of air travel. The photo captures the essence of flight during the mid-20th century, when air travel was still considered a luxury and each journey held an element of excitement and adventure.
