The Airedale is a fairly rare aircraft, only 43 having been built and only 3 imported to Australia. VH-DCR was first registered on 11 April 1963, one of 3 Airedales imported by a short-lived Bankstown outfit named Allied Aviation Ltd. The others were VH-DCP & DCS, from the then current DCA NSW Region allocation VH-DC reg block. They were new production aircraft shipped from England, no previous British registrations. Currently Swan Hill, Vic, based. (Thanks Mr Jeffri)

The Kyneton Aero Club's Skyhawk has been with the club for a long time. It was built in 1976 and allocated the US registration N73142. For some reason this was not taken up and it was registered N1841C - but not for long as it was registered new in Australia as VH-ABW(2) on 16 August 1976.

Runway 32 at Mount Beauty's picturesque aerodrome, located at the very head of the Kiewa Valley and at the foot of Mount Bogong, Victoria's highest mountain. This view is back up the valley - behind the camera is a big hill! The strip was first used in 1976 and officially opened the following year. The Mount Beauty Gliding Club is based here with a winch-launched IS-28 and a newly-acquired, slef-launching ASK-21Mi.

This very historic aircraft was back at its old stamping ground for the Essendon Airport Open Day in 1996. Imported by the fledgling Ansett Airways and registered VH-UZO on 26 August 1937, named Ansertes. Struck off the Register in 2002 and currently in storage at the Fleet Air Arm Museum, Nowra.

This 1985-model Metro went first to Pioneer Airlines as N2680V. In 1988 it was leased to Wings West Airlines, who re-registered it as N346AE in 1990. In March 1993 it was returned to the leasing company and later that year was sold in Australia, becoming VH-SSW on 15 December with Newcastle Aviation. It went to Pel-Air Express in December 1994, but was not re-registered until February 2002. This aircraft is actually VH-EER(4) - number 3 also being a Metro, just to make things confusing!
