VH-APJ   de Havilland D.H.84 Dragon                         (c/n  2064)

                               

                                     I have two shots of this aircraft, both at Bankstown.  This Dragon was owned for many years by
                                     the Royal Aero Club of NSW.  The shot above was taken in 1949, while by 1954 (below) it had
                                     succumbed to the club's penchant for painting their fleet a dark (almost navy) blue with a black rego.
                                     VH-APJ was delivered to the RAAF in 1942 as A34-75 and re-registered into the club's series in
                                     1957 becoming VH-RSZ.
                                      There were actually two VH-APJs, the second being ex VH-ASU (c/n 2079, ex A34-90)
