VH-BHI  Hiller UH-12C                              (c/n  831)

                                      

                                             This Hiller, seen at Essendon in 1957 in the above shot from The Collection p3255-0004, was
                                             short-lived under that rego, being registered to The Zinc Corp, Broken Hill NSW in May 1957
                                             and being wrecked on 21 October that same year in a crash in a remote area of Cape York
                                             Peninsular in far north Queensland.   It was, however, repaired and became VH-THC for TAA,
                                             only to be written off, this time for good, in Antarctica in 1960.
