Beautiful and rare: originally delivered to the RAAF in the second batch of Cadets during 1938-9. Initially served with 1FTS, Point Cook, but moved to Camden with CFS in 1941. Disposed of after the war, becoming VH-AGH on 16 July 1945 & eventually ending up in the hands of Sid Marshall at Bankstown. SOR 6 June 1951. Beautifully restored, ff April 2008. Seen here, fittingly, on Anzac Day at the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's National Fly-in.
