VH-AYO Avro 652A
Anson 1
Here's VH-AYO in August of 1948 after it
had groundlooped at Victoria River Downs Station
when a tire burst on
take-off. It was on a scheduled MacRoberston Miller Aviation
flight at the
time. The six
passengers were unhurt. Note the name 'RMA Ord' on the
nose. MMA named
all their airliners after
rivers in WA. VH-AYO was repaired and flying again 6
weeks later. It
became VH-MMH in
1949. Above image from the Geoff Goodall collection.
