VH-AWG (1) de Havilland D.H.89A Dragon Rapide 4
(c/n 6903)
Here's -AWG in the hangar at Archerfield, circa 1958
(a Norm Weeding photo, via Geoff Goodall).
This Rapide was
previously ZK-BFK, imported
from New Zealand in 1957 by Airwork Co Ltd of
Archerfield and
shipped to Brisbane rather than risk a ferry flight across the Tasman
Sea. Registered
VH-AWG in
November 1957, it was used for charter and photographic survey work
until sold to Bob
Carswell's Carsair
Air Services in May of 1959 and re-registered VH-BIF.
