Surely the best colour scheme going around on a Harvard today? Although painted in this superb USN scheme, this aircraft was actually built as AT-6C Harvard Mk II, USAAF 41-33767, to an RAF order (EX794). It was, however, shipped straight to New Zealand in August 1943 and became NZ1051. It served with the RNZAF until 1978 when it was sold. Seen here taxying for departure from the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's National Fly-in.

Lovely OY-1 Stinson (a naval version of the L-5E) making an early morning departure from the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's National Fly-in. The aircraft has been restored to accurate markings it wore in USN service. VH-NOY made its first post-restoration flight on 29 March 2007. The aircraft is on the Register with cn '03995', but as far as can be determined this is actually its Bu number.

Originally built as a straight J.1 and registered in the UK as G-AGYJ. Exported to Australia in 1952 where it became VH-BGB. Re-registered to VH-KEV in 1954, and VH-WMM in 1957. Recently completely rebuilt following following a mammoth towing job across the Nullarbor Plain from St. Arnaud, Vic, to Western Australia. Cirrus Minor engine replaced with a Gipsy Major making it effectively a J.1N. FF after rebuild 14 December 2003 at Jandakot. It's thought the owner has an connection with Air New Zealand, hence the colours.
