The exposed Continental C85 (O-190) of this lovely Klemm Swallow. Built in 1934 with a Pobjoy radial, the aircraft was initially registered in Germany as D-EHIV, then went to Switzerland as HB-XAL. It was re-registered in Australia as VH-UUR on 5 August 1935 for use in New Guinea by the Divine Word Mission (Roman Catholic). It escaped the Japanese advance during the Second World War by flying to Australia and after the war was sold into private hands where its first owner re-engined it with a C85. The aircraft recently underwent a beautiful restoration in the hands of Roy Fox.
