Photo Comment

This old Draggie is entirely covered in spraylat for preservation until it can be housed inside. Registered G-AVZD on 6 Dec 1967, it was retained by the manufacturer as a trials aircraft. It was then converted to standard RAAF navigation trainer equipment fit and handed over to the RAAF on 30 Aug 1968. Based at the School of Air Navigation at RAAF East Sale. This became 32 Squadron from 1 Jul 1989. Retired and ferried to the RAAF Museum at Point Cook 20 Jan 2004.
