VH-BQP
(2) Piper PA-22-108
Colt
(c/n 22-8669)
This was formerly the RQAC's VH-RQI and was re-registered -BQP
when sold by the club in 1967.
It came to grief
on 6 September 1969 when it crashed at Toowoomba. The
shot above, by David
Carter, shows the remains at Bankstown
in 1970 in Hangar 114, the so called American hangar. The
tail on the left is that of the Supermarine Seagull V VH-ALB, which was
also stored after its accident
in January that year. VH-ALB went to the RAF Museum and VH-BQP to the
scrap heap. Is this the
only
picture around of VH-BQP(2)?
