Photo Comment

Damaged in an accident in 1971 and ended up on the fire dump at Jandakot Airport. Removed for use as a training aid before being acquired by the museum. The significance of the aircraft is its link to famed nurse and pilot Robin Miller. Miller and her future husband Dr Harold Dicks flew Horizons F-OCLI and F-OCLA from Paris to Australia in 1968. Miller actually flew F-OCLA which became VH-EOL and remains on the Australian register at the time of upload.
