This Trojan was built for the US Navy with serial Bu 137743. Retired, it was civil registered as N5439X in August 1984. It moved through several owners before being exported to Australia in April 2008. It was registered VH-ZSH on 27 November that year and is currently based in Toowoomba, Qld. It seems to have been partly repainted since moving to Australia, and now carries the appropriate name 'Miss Stress' on the port nose.

New aircraft, same rego & colour scheme! This VH-FDB (the 4th) replaced an earlier King Air 200C. It was allocated the US rego N7317A(2) but probably never wore it, unless for flight testing, as it was registered new to the RFDS in 'their' VH-FD_ (Flying Doctor) block on 24 April 2007. It's seen here departing Runway 14.

There are quite a few of these pocket-rockets getting around now. This one did a display at the Wide Bay International Airshow. It was only just over a year old, having been registered with the RAAus on 6 May 2008.

Wing walkers are what you need in a Tiger! This is actually the third Tiger Moth (& the 5th aircraft) to carry the registration VH-RVE: the other Tigers were both old Royal Victorian Aero Club machines. This particular example was built in the UK in 1941 for the RAF as T7093. Post-war it became G-AMMX and later found its way to New Zealand as ZK-BAN, before coming to Australia for a 14-year re-build.
