Just to confuse matters, this Skyhawk SP replaced an earlier General Flying Services Skyhawk of the same rego - making this one VH-EWZ(4) by my reckoning! Formerly N1199G.

Since I last photographed this aircraft in April 2006 it has changed identity from VH-EUE to VH-NUE. It also moved from Melbourne to a new home with Airflite, based out of Jandakot WA, which makes it a long way from home at Temora! This Skyhawk was first registered, new, on 23 July 1998 and the change of registration occurred on 25th October 2006.

This immaculate Navajo Panther is used on charter work and was waiting for some passengers at Bendigo. Note the new winglets, cowlings and four-bladed Q-tip props of the Panther conversion. You'd hardly guess the aeroplane was a quarter century old. It crashed and was destroyed after a night takeoff at Bathurst, NSW on 7th November 2008 with pilot disorientation suspected as the cause.

This aircraft is the only one of its kind in Australia. Only two were ever imported, the other (VH-WWL) having been burnt in 1966. VH-WWE was registered new in Australia on 5 November 1962. The Rangemaster was a 5-seat development of the earlier North American, later Ryan, Navion produced immediately after the Second World War. The tip-tanks are a prominent recognition feature.

Parasol-wing, monoplanes are pretty rare at the best of times. This is the first, and so far only, Mk II version of the Sprite, built by Doug Pardew. The Mk I aircraft had a lovely boomerang-shaped wing but was otherwise similar. The only problem is, I wouldn't fit in it!

Originally registered with RAAus on 1 December 1989 as 10-1155 but still under construction. Re-registered as 19-1155 on 1 January 1995 but only flown fairly recently. It's very fast but quite a handful to fly.

Built to a wartime RAF order as an Auster Mk 5, TW433, with a flat Lycoming O-290: first flight 12 Sept 1945. Used by Auster for trials post-war 1947-48. Struck off in April 1953 & sold the following year to Australia where it became the one and only Mk 5D Ajax, fitted with an in-line Gipsy Major & other civil mods. SOR 1971 - later rebuilt with an O-320 and returned to Register Feb 1983. Damaged by fire in Dec 2004 but rebuilt and looking good! Seen at the AAAA annual charity Christmas Toy Run.
