Back at home base since I last photographed it at Broken Hill, this 1977 Chieftain was originally registered in the USA as N63735. In 1986 it came to Australia and seems to have been originally registered VH-AFP(3), before becoming VH-MBP and then VH-OZP in 'the Aus-Air block'. Aus-Air was a Moorabbin-based RPT operator that ran mostly Chieftains and also a Bandit, at least when I used to deal with their flight plans!

This Zodiac has an interesting colour scheme but a fitting rego! It seems to have been built in Western Australia and later moved over to the east coast. It transferred to the RAAus Register as 19-7016 on 5 November 2008.

I helped get the kit this aircraft was built from out of its crate on 8 December 2005. Three short years later, and here it is! It was registered on 9 November 2007 and made its first flight just a couple of months before this photo was taken. Good work Chris & Susie!

My logbook shows that I first flew 'Wally' on 20 Dec 1997 when it was just about brand new, and pretty regularly for the next four years. There is little more pleasant in aviation than swanning about on a warm summer's evening in a Drifter!
