You have to be a gymnast just to get into the cockpit of this mighty beast! Note the clear-view window to see the hopper contents and the aircraft's callsign 'Firebomber 365' on the panel. On the right side-panel is the comprehensive comms fit.

In April 1994 it was transferred to the RAAF Museum and trucked to Bankstown for restoration. It was registered, appropriately, VH-FTS on 18 November that year and made its first post-restoration flight in February 1996. Currently based at Point Cook and flown regularly.

Joining overhead for the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's annual Auster Rally. We were an early arrival but you can see half a dozen aircraft already lined up along the grass Runway 09/27. Look close enough and you can also see an aircraft climbing out underneath and toward us on departure from Runway 18. The large hangar was fomerly the Drage Airworld museum, now home to warbird restorer Precision Aerospace Productions and the Pacific Fighters Museum.

Catching the setting sun after a hard day's flying at the Wide Bay International Airshow. This aircraft was built for the RNZAF as NZ6370 and made its first flight in the UK on 17 Oct 1972. It was shipped to NZ and reassembled at Ohakea, making its first flight there in Jan 1973. In June 1993 it was sold in Australia and shipped to Bankstown. It was stored for some years before being restored, and currently operates on warbird adventure flights out of Port Macquarie.

This old Navajo looks in pretty good nick as it catches the last rays of the setting sun. It has had several previous identities: N9022Y; EC-BNA; G-BFHO; & N4513U. It came to Australia in 1998 and is presently based at Warracknabeal.
