'Dorothy May' at the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's Auster Rally. Imported in 1953, this aircraft was somewhat unusual for an Aussie Auster in not being new - it was the former G-AIBL. It served for a time in the 1960s with the Illawarra Flying School in NSW. Based at Tyabb during the '90s, it is now resident in SA.
