I was in Broken Hill, driving to Sydney. I had driven all day from Adelaide and was walking along the main street looking for a likely place to eat later that evening.
I heard an unusual sound. One we don't often hear today. The sound of an old aircraft with many engines. Looking up I saw the Lockheed Constellation in the photographs.
Quick dash to the Broken Hill airport where I spent the next 2 hours looking at the plane as it sat waiting for its next group of passengers. Then I saw it take of with its streams of black smoke from each engine.
Few can understand it I am sure but I was pretty pleased to have seen this incident.
