Photo Comment

This Skylark was photographed at its home base. The 'C' Skylark featured a few new goodies such as a constant-speed prop. This aircraft also has the Horton Stol-Craft STOL kit incorporated, which includes leading edge cuffs, conical camber wingtips and aileron seals. The optional flap gap seals aren't fitted. This Skylark was registered new in Australia on 10 April 1962 as VH-ALK(2), and later became VH-RBP for a while. It was formerly allocated but never wore the US reg N8392T.
