Shot taken at Moorabbin in 1958.
VH-BWJ was new in 1953 although was re-registered
VH-UEA
shortly after this photograph was taken. Auster historian
Ian O'Neill indicates that
it was
struck off the register in 1979, but was resurrected in 1998 as VH-JNT
prior to a possible
restoration by
Jonathon Collins of Conder, in the ACT. Its registration was
again cancelled in
2002,
but is possibly still a candidate for a rebuild.
