Photo Comment

This Aiglet was originally registered as VH-KAW to the Australian Auster agents, Kingsford Smith Aviation Service, at Bankstown on 18 May 51. A month later it was sold to a private owner, and changed hands again a month after that. It was struck off the Register on 8 March 57 but re-registered as VH-WFA on 9 Aug that year to Wagga Air Taxi & Flying School. From 15 June 63 it was re-registered again as VH-WWG. Currently based at Swanpool. Seen here departing after static display at the Avalon Airshow.
