This 1978 Titan has led a varied life: starting as N8823K, it has also been SE-IBF, LN-KAB(3), PH-FWA, D-IKEP and finally VH-TTK from 21 February 1995. Still looks pretty good though...

'Elvis', aka 'Helitak 739' and the other Skycranes have been in the thick of things fighting the worst bushfires in Victoria's history - over 200 people perished in 24 hours of fire-storms. Nevertheless, here's Elvis back at its Essendon base having a day of respite from the constant water-bombing although the fires are still burning up in the hills, hence the smoky, grey sky.

This 1973 Shrike Commander is part of the extensive GAM fleet of Aero Commanders, though it isn't painted in their usual 'house colours'. It was being pushed back on to their apron, hence the bloke looking backward out the door! It was first registered in Australia on 23 January 1979.
