Delivered to the Whyalla Aero Club in 1964. VH-DER, flown by T. Brougham, finished 2nd in the commercial section of the 1966 Moomba Air Race, behind another Airtourer 100, VH-RVB. The Race was inspired by the 100th Anniversary of the Royal Aeronautical Society, and was organised by the Victorian Branch of the RAeS, Royal Victorian Aero Club, the Department of Civil Aviation, and the Melbourne Moomba Festival Committee. This photo was taken by the pilot of VH-RVB. [#AT43] Photo: Richard J Maclean This photo was added on 12 August 2021, and has since been viewed 208 times. |
