A busy morning on the Executive Airlines apron. In front is Citation Bravo VH-FGK with Executive's logo on the fin, and Beechjet VH-EXB loading up behind. At right is Execujet Lear 45 VH-VVI with WPS titles. In the hangar you can just glimpse the nose of Executive's brand-new Citation 680 Sovereign VH-EXG.

This Skylane isn't going far powered by a 44 gallon drum! It's an ex jump-ship, as seen by the titles and the home-made step on the starboard wheel. It is currently de-registered but was last registered to an owner in Mackay, Qld. Before coming to Australia in 1969, it was N71849 in the USA.
