This is actually the second Tiger Moth to have been registered as VH-SSI, the first being part of the SuperSpread ag operation 1954-56. This one was built to an EATS order as DX835 (ntu) but diverted to the RAAF as A17-637. Post-War it became VH-RVG with the Royal Vic Aero Club, then VH-TPD, then VH-SSI(2) on 14 July 1962.

The Olympia was a British re-design of the pre-war German glider of the same name, intended as a standard class for the 1940 Olympic Games. Three Chilton/EoN Olympias were built in Australia, this one by Norm Hyde of Australian Sailplanes in 1959. In later years it was owned by the late Mike Valentine, leaning on the wing in this shot. Mike was the first partner I had in my own aircraft. Today the Oly is still going strong in the hands of my friends Phil and Diane, based at Bacchus Marsh.

'Zichen Hao' (Capital Pavilion Liner) is Air China's latest special colour scheme, and only a week old since it rolled out of the Ameco Beijing paint shop! This was the first time I saw it in Melbourne. This aircraft was test flown under the registration F-WWKU and delivered to Air China as B-6076 on 6 December 2006.

The one and only JUKA is the great Jurgis Kairys' own design - basically an enormous engine with wings and a tail.

Originally built as a Mk.1 with Gipsy Majors and registered VH-AZM in 1952. Re-registered VH-DRF in 1961 and in 1964 re-registered again in the RFDS series as VH-FDU. At some stage converted to Mk.3 standard with Lycoming O-360-A1As, which must have made a big improvement! In June 1967 to Fiji Airways as VP-PAF and converted to Mk.3B standard. Returned to Australia as VH-FDU in Dec 1972. Now privately owned, although it once again carries RFDS titles.

'Red Alert' arriving at the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's National Fly-in. This 1985-built Yak was first registered in Australia on 29 September 2000. It was previously SA-based, bit since May 2007 lives in Boort, Vic. It also seems to have sprouted some new 'drop tanks' since I last photographed it.
