In for some engine maintenance. This 2004 Air Tractor was registered new in Australia on 6 October that year to big aerial ag operator Field Air of Ballarat. It's evidently used on summer fire bombing contract work too, as 'Bomber 249'.

No mistaking where this is! This Skyhawk was first registered in Australia on 10 January 1967. It was formerly N3939R (though this was possibly just a "trade plate").

SOR 1971 - later rebuilt with an O-320 and returned to Register Feb 1983. Damaged by fire in Dec 2004 but rebuilt and looking good! Seen at the AAAA Chippie Rally.

'Carol Ann' arriving at the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's Chippie Rally. Designed to an RAAF order for a basic trainer to replace the Tiger Moth, this aircraft had its first flight at CAC's Fishermans Bend aerodrome on 8 Nov 1956. Following RAAF service as A85-440, it was delivered to the Hobart, Tas, branch of the Air Training Corps at Cambridge in 1976. In 1985 it was acquired by a private owner in Horsham, Vic, in 1985 and registered VH-HFM on 27 June that year.

Heading home to Luskintyre after the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's Chippie Rally. This former RAF Chippie, WB710, was de-mobbed in January 1951 and according to some sources went to the Sri Lankan Air Force. In any case it went to Ireland as EI-AJB in 1956 before coming to Australia in 1958 where it became VH-RSM(2) with the Royal Aero Club of NSW. Later re-registered VH-WMT, then VH-WMG. It was restored and re-registered VH-RSM(4) in 1987.

The KR-2 really is a tiny aircraft! This VW-powered example, 'Phil's KR' - looks pretty flash with its shark mouth. It was registered on 16 January 2004 and is seen here visiting the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's Chippie Rally.

Tocumwal was once the largest aerodrome in the Southern Hemisphere. Built in record time in the dark days of February 1942 as a USAAF bomber base for the inland defence of Australia and named McIntyre Field, it originally covered 8 square miles. Taken over by the RAAF in Nov 42 and used as a Liberator OTU, one of the giant bomber hangars can still be seen to the right in this photo. Post-war used as a collection point for the scrapping of many surplus RAAF aircraft.
