The sad reamins of Mitchell Fair Dinkum, named after the Australian
expression meaning 'the real thing'. The heat was such in the
fire that the complete forward fuselage section was malted.
The photo is taken at Durand Drome, after Japanese G4M1 bombers from
the 705th Kokutai based at Rabaul destroyed three Mitchells from
this squadron on 12th April 1943.
The other two Mitchells destroyed on the same raid were #41-29705 Baby
Blitz, and #41-29719 The Grim Reaper.
