This Cherokee is a long way from home in Busselton, WA. Registered new in May 1966 as VH-PYT by the Piper agents, Ansett General Aviation, Bankstown. Sold to Connellan Airways at Alice Springs and re-registered in their VH-CL_ block. Thought to have been Eddie Connellan's personal aircraft. Sold in Perth in 1970 and used by Preston Air Charter for two years until traded with Schutt's at Moorabbin. Passed through numerous hands, including 'Doc' Penny (Penfield) before makings its way west again.
