Here is one of her sister ships, F-BGSP, taken in New Caledonia in 1971. It wasn't all that unusual for aerial survey companies to use old aeroplanes, remembering that our own Adastra was using Hudsons up until 1973. With survey operations involving so much downtime awaiting perfect weather, it helped if the aeroplane was fully depreciated!

Here is another survey B-17 which visited Sydney.
