Close-up of the hangars and flying school office. Since the local Council hasn't given permission to build more hangars for about twenty years, 'temporary' igloo hangars are now de rigeur. Sunbury is the nearest town.

One of two UK-built trainer Canberras given RAAF serials, this aircraft was brought on RAAF charge on 3 May 1956. Served with 82 Wing and suffered two accidents, but repaired, then to CFS at East Sale. From 1963 various disposal options considered including sale to WRE Edinburgh and to the Indian Air Force, or use at ARL for fatigue testing. Ended up at RSTT Wagga Wagga as an instructional airframe. Bought by HARS Sept 1989 & in the process of restoration.

This Aerobat still carries its former Curtin Flying Club titles, although it now operates with MAS. This 1983 Aerobat was originally registered N758YZ. Exported to Australia, it became VH-WFV(2 - I think) on 17 January 1989.

Heading home to Luskintyre after the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's Chippie Rally. This former RAF Chippie, WB710, was de-mobbed in January 1951 and according to some sources went to the Sri Lankan Air Force. In any case it went to Ireland as EI-AJB in 1956 before coming to Australia in 1958 where it became VH-RSM(2) with the Royal Aero Club of NSW. Later re-registered VH-WMT, then VH-WMG. It was restored and re-registered VH-RSM(4) in 1987.

Looking much nicer with a fresh re-paint than when I photographed her 2 years ago! Registered new as G-APYP on 8 Mar 60. Imported into Australia for MMA and registered VH-MMP(2) 'RMA Pilbara' on 3 Feb 64. Used for charter work. In '69 it was due to charter for Ansett Airlines of PNG, but broke down at Horn Is on the ferry flight to New Guinea. After remaining there for 5 weeks, ferried to Bankstown, then Moorabbin. Sold to Motif Air, Melbourne, 12 Jul 70. Eventually became derelict at Bankstown.
