Description Northern Territory. RAAF salvage crew loading the fuselage of the Dragon Rapide aircraft A3-2 onto a truck. The wings and engines have been removed to facilitate the salvage operation. The detached wings are seen at left and at right, behind the fuselage. The A3-2 is still carrying its call sign VH-UVG, as it was pressed into RAAF service to begin work based at Port Hedland as part of the North Australian Survey Flight (NASF). The A3-2 was forced to land ninety miles north of Newcastle Waters on 13 April 1936 when it exhausted its fuel. The crew, Flight Lieutenant W. L. Hely, Aircraftmen R. B. Sherwood and H. Walkington, were uninjured although A3-2 sustained severe damage to the undercarriage in the landing.
