The first jet aircraft in Australia, an ex RAF aircraft transferred to the RAAF in 1946. Its fate is unclear but is believed to have gone to the RAAF's trade school at Wagga Wagga. From there it may have been burned on the fire dump. Photo from: State Library of Victoria This photo was added on 16 November 2022, and has since been viewed 272 times. |
