This intriguingly-painted Sportsman was first registered N214WS in 2007. It's understood that the builder was a person of native US indian descent who painted it this way as having meaning to his people. It was sold to Australia in 2016 and re-registered VH-ZCC(2) on 22 April that year. Seen here at the Antiquers' National Fly-in (although clearly not an antique!)

'Salvation Jane' at the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's National Fly-in. This aircraft was built by De Havilland Australia at Mascot, NSW, in 1942 and was one of a batch to serve with 9EFTS at Cunderdin, WA. It seems to have been a late starter in its civil career, having first been registered as VH-BTM as late as 5 May 1954. It seems to have suffered a crash in 1959 or 60 and to have been resurrected as VH-AUZ in 1994.

Built in 1959 as a genuine nosedragger Tri-Pacer, it was registered new in Australia as VH-PSW. Rebuilt as a taildragger and up-engined, it seems to have been re-registered in December 1985. Registration was subsequently changed to VH-PCR(2) to free the original rego for a new RV-7 being built.

Built in 1959 as a genuine nosedragger Tri-Pacer, it was registered new in Australia as VH-PSW. Rebuilt as a taildragger and up-engined, it seems to have been re-registered in December 1985. Registration was subsequently changed to VH-PCR(2) to free the original rego for a new RV-7 being built.

Alliance put the big Fokker through its paces again with an impressive display as 'Unity 991' at the Wide Bay International Airshow. This aircraft has had a long history, initially as PH-EZF, then to USAir as N864US, then temporarily to PH-CXG, then to Germaina and Air Berlin as D-AGPG. Acquired by Alliance in 2010 and registered VH-XWR on 14 September that year.

Built to a 1951 order (in the days when the USAF ordered more than 17,000 aircraft a year) and delivered in 1952 as an L-19A-CE, serial 51-12001. I don't know the exact history of this aircraft, but it seems likely that it eventually went to the R Thai AF before being 'demobbed' and exported to Australia, becoming VH-LQX on 28 August 1991. It's currently based at Essendon and regularly flies IFR.

After the war it was civilianised and became ZK-ALB and served with Mt Cook Airlines before being exported to Australia in 1971 to become VH-IAN, later VH-UTV.
