NZ2049 was part of a batch of 300 Hudson IIIAs for the RAF, however the majority found their way to the RAAF and RNZAF. Under the nose window is the aircraft’s construction number, whilst beneath the windscreen the USAAF identity 41-36976 can be found.

Flying from Guadalcanal with 3 (GR) Squadron, RNZAF, NZ2049 survived at least two attacks from Japanese aircraft. Eventually she survived the war, but could easily have ended wrecked somewhere in a Pacific island jungle as presented here.
