RAAF Caribou, aircraft number A4-191 (c/n # 191), commonly called a "wallaby" by the USAF Bou drivers, because of  their "wallaby" call sign and the wallaby emblem on the side of the fuselage above the rear cargo door.  Photo taken at Dalat Cam-ly in 1968. (Bryan Waltz)

>>> This RAAF Caribou had just taken off. The glider had come out of an aerobatic maneuver and had a lot of speed up. It was unplanned, and it nearly caused an accident. The glider as it came out of a downward dive suddenly had this Caribou in front of him doing a slow take off. The glider literally dived underneath the Caribou, at which point the Caribou pulled up steeper in a climb as soon as he saw the glider. I was almost convinced that I was going to see a mid air accident at that point. RAAF Air Base Richmond Australia - New South Wales,1990 (Glenn Alderton)
