The third DC-3 to be imported into Australia, this historic aircraft was purchased by Australian National Airways for 32,000 pounds and first registered on 31 October 1938. After a wartime spell as A30-3, it was badly damaged in a forced landing following an engine fire on 4 Oct 1948. Taken over in 1957 by Ansett-ANA. To Airlines of South Australia in 1961 & 'retired' on 13 March 1971 with 67,224 hours. And that's only her first 33 years!

This aircraft was produced as a standard Airvan and was registered on 4 December 2002 (although it's got a 2003 cn!). It was later converted to become the prototype turbocharged Airvan, for which certification was achieved in February 2009. It previously appeared at the Australian International Airshow in 2007 in MAF colours - possibly for promotional purposes. It's seen here taxying for a handling demo in 2009 in the very capable hands of Gippy's test pilot, Dave Wheatland.

The Furio is a new composite-construction kitplane, designed and manufactured in New Zealand. This is the first prototype and it flew across the Tasman Sea to attend the Australian International Airshow (first flight was on 6 February 2008). Quite a stunning looker, really, and not a little like the Falco.
