ZK-AFC Lockheed
10A
Electra
(c/n 1092)
In 1937 Union Airways of New Zealand ordered
three, all-metal, Lockheed 10A Electras
to
replace or rather augment, their fleet of fabric covered de Havilland
aircraft. ZK-AFC
was the
first and was named 'Katare'. It was
destroyed in a crash at Mangere in 1938 killing
the two
crew aboard.
