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!

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!
