Photo Comment

The 1969 Army Air Corps England-Australia Race Auster AOP.9 XR241/G-AXRR back in normal camouflage colours. It was presented to the Shuttleworth Collection in January 1970 and was a regular airshow performer. It was subsequently deemed not to fit with the Collection's aims and went to Graham Warner's British Aerial Museum at Duxford in April 1983. Current in its air race colours at Eggesford in 2021.
