                                      This Skylane was owned by the Royal Aero Club of South Australia when this photo, by Geoff
                                      Goodall, was taken at Parafield in September 1964.  The aircraft had just returned to the field
                                      from an attempted flight to an air show at Albury, NSW but had been forced back by low cloud
                                      and rain.   It was a new aircraft first registered to the club as VH-DKD in June 1964.  It was
                                      quickly re-registered into the club's VH-BW block. The Skylane was among the aircraft wrecked
                                      at Darwin by Cyclone Tracy on Christmas Day, 1974.
