VH-ACS de
Havilland D.H.94 Moth Minor
(c/n 94047)
The above shot is from the Geoff Goodall
collection and was taken at Portland, Victoria in 1968.
I am not sure when David
Tanner's photo immediately below was taken, although the RVAC's
Cessna
172F VH-RVG in the background somewhat dates it. Note the
aircraft, at that time, was
devoid
of its strake line, and could have been taken later than John
Wheatley's shot ot it at the foot
of the
page taken at Alice Springs, circa 1970).
In the latter it had sported a Mickey Mouse
character
just forward of the cockpit.
VH-ACS was the former G-AFOW and was
imported
in
1940. Oddly, it appears never to have
been impressed into RAAF service. Was it kept hidden
from the
authorities?
