Mac Carter
says:I am old enough to remember when the Bandeirante took over regional services ( North Queensland Gulf ) from
the Douglas DC 3.
More reliable electrics in the hot humid conditions proved to be a bonus for Gulf communities.

Randal
says:I owned Transtate Airlines and we operated six Bandits in the Gulf area and to Cooktown etc.
Great little aircraft although no aircon
Patrick Olave
says:Transtate and their Bandits….yes. Loved that livery.
No much is recorded on the net about Transtate’s history.
Jim Thorn
says:I remember the arrival of Masling’s first Bandeirante and meeting the enthusiastic Masling family in the very first months of Australian Aviation. Loved the aircraft and the attitude of the Brazilians. Wish only that our own government had that attitude towards fixing and promoting the dysfunctional and union dominated GAF of the era. You live in hope.
