In 1944 Quantas Empire Airways (QEA) became short of aircraft after many of it's aircraft had been impressed into the war effort. The company had also lost other aircraft through war losses and applied to the Air Ministry in London to seek aircraft they could use. The Air Ministry approved the transfer of two Liberators from the Brirish Overseas Airways Corporation (BOAC) to QEA for use on the Indian Ocean route with one of the first two being AL619 / G-AGKT. It arrived in Australia in late-1944 and was flown to QEA's Brisbane/Archerfield workshops where they were modified the aircraft with extra fuel tanks in the wings and added seats for seven passengers in the bomb bay. In total the Liberators made a total of 259 crossings of the Indian Ocean. G-AGKT was scrapped in 1947.
