Warren Stewart rolling at the Houdini-Centenary Air Show. Together with aerobatic legend Chris Sperou in Pitts VH-XPS, Warren in VH-GIP forms one half of the Skyblazers formation aerobatics team. This aircraft was registered new on 28 June 1962 - Warren reckons he probably helped to assemble it when he worked for importer De Havilland Australia at Bankstown in the '60s!

Operated by Tecnam Australia. The Eaglet is a more general aviation-oriented version of the P-92, aimed at the GA training market. This is the importer's demonstrator, the first one in the country, at NATFLY 2010. It was only registered a month before, on 4 March 2010.

This 1983-model Cessna 152 was first registered in Australia quite recently, on 15 February 2005. So far, it has not been re-painted into the new RVAC house colours. This rego formerly belonged to a Cessna U206G Stationair. Aircraft destroyed in a forced landing near Moorabbin on 7 August 2010. Pilot and passenger OK.

This immaculate aircraft was in the hands of the same owner for 30 years until sold a couple of years ago. It's currently Moorabbin-based and preserved pretty much exactly as it was when it was built in 1966. Originally registered N1467F, it probably never wore that rego as it was registered in Australia on 27 October 1966. Seen here departing after the Houdini-Centenary Air Show.

This private strip, near the township of Riddell's Creek on Melbourne's northern outskirts, was all-grass before getting a sealed runway in more recent years. This photo looks south-east and you can see the deep gully of Jackson's Creek with its steep drop, which always makes taking off to the south a somewhat exciting prospect.

Sydney Seaplanes' new million-dollar passenger terminal and cafe at Rose Bay. It's a big improvement on the old fibro shack they used for many years. This building stands on the site of the original 1938 Control Building and passenger terminal, built for the Empire flying boats of the Empire Air Mail Scheme and used until the 1970s. Such history!

After military service, this Albatros initially went to South Africa where it was registered in the experimental block as ZU-BZA in October 1999. In 2002 it came to Australia, initially being based in Perth, and was re-registered VH-LQT on 2 August that year. Early the following year, on 2 January 2003, it was re-registered VH-HOT. This lasted until 12 June 2007 when it was re-registered again as VH-IOT. Seen here at the Antique Aeroplane Association of Australia's National Fly-in.

This aircraft presented something of a mystery! Sister-ship VH-YKO was damaged in an accident at Archerfield on 22 Nov 2006. Because the aircraft are used for warbird adventure flights and all the publicity brochures showed VH-YKO, replacement VH-YRO was painted in identical markings, even down to the 'bullet holes' and VH-YKO's cn on the fin! This aircraft was first registered in Australia on 11 July 2006. Incidentally, the fuselage code is the owner's initials.

All is not as it seems! This Tiger is a rebuild whose original identity was A17-322, brought on RAAF charge on 14 April 1941. Sold in June 1946, it became VH-AYX. Retired at Alice Springs in December 1965. Rebuilt at Luskintyre and re-registered VH-UTD on 15 December 1995, painted to represent the original VH-UTD which was the first Tiger Moth imported into Australia for the Newcastle Aero Club in June 1935, and named 'Halcyon'.
