This historic aircraft was the first Cessna imported into Australia, for Macrobertson Miller Aviation Co. in 1937. It was used on the Adelaide-Whyalla run until late 1939 when it was flown to Perth and used by Macrobertson Miller Airlines on services in Western Australia. MMA sold it in 1948 and it has had a succession of private owners since. Fully rebuilt at Bendigo by Ray Goulding between 1988 and 1995. Seen here at the AAAA National Fly-in.
