 | | Although the aircraft still carries its Dutch 'trade plate' registration, it is already painted in the DCA house colours of white with light blue trim, and carries the DCA logo on forward fuselage and fin. |
 | | DCA ordered two brand new Friendships during 1959 so that the regulator had experience on the same airliner type that was being purchased in numbers at that time by Australian airlines such as TAA, East West Airlines, MacRobertson Miller Airlines, Ansett-ANA and its subsidiaries Airlines of NSW, Airlines of SA and Queensland Airlines. |
 | | Both Friendships were based at Melbourne/Essendon and used for a variety of roles, including radio navigation aid calibration work throughout Australia and Papua New Guinea. |
