Australian National Airways was a short-lived Australian airline founded in 1929 by Charles Kingsford Smith and Charles Ulm. The airline began operations in January 1930 with five Avro 618 Tens similar aircraft to Kingsford Smith's famous Southern Cross. However the airline folded in 1931 after the crash of VH-UMF Southern Cloud in the Australian Alps between Sydney and Melbourne and VH-UNA Southern Sun in Malaya.
