Just to confuse matters, this is the second Pel-Air Metro to be registered VH-EEQ! This one was built in 1985 and registered N3119B to Wings West Airlines. In 1990 they re-registered it N347AE. In 1993 it was exported to Australia, being registered VH-SST on 5 April. It was re-registered VH-EEQ by Pel-Air in January 2002.

Coasting to a stop at the Sydney Seaplanes terminal, Rose Bay. This Beaver was built in 1961 and delivered to the Ghana Air Force, registered G-213. It seems to have made its way to the USA around 1974, being civil registered as N37772. In 1976 it came to Australia, being re-registered as VH-IMR on 17 September that year. It was later re-registered again as VH-AAM(3) on 13 April 1992 and named 'Caledonia' after one of the old Empire flying boats that used to operate out of Rose Bay.

A rare case of cn and registration matching in this colourful factory-built Sapphire. Sapphires were once considered 'high performance' machines in the ultralight world, but they have now been overtaken by the plethora of larger, faster designs.

Departing as 'Cobra' (what else?) on a demonstration flight during the Australian International Airshow as a Galaxy is towed down Runway 18 to the southern park. This Sea Cobra was operated on lease by Bell during the airshow as a demonstrator in the Australian Army's ARH contest, ultimately won by the Eurocopter Tiger.

This unique aeroplane is the only airworthy Genairco in the world. Looking a lot like a Tiger Moth, the Genairco was actually a wholly Australian designed and built aircraft. This one was built in 1930 and has been flying more or less continuously since. Fairly recently restored to beautiful condition. Note the Polar Bear in the two-seat, side-by-side front cockpit!
