VH-BXW Cessna 182C
Skylane
(c/n 52429)
This Cessna 182C had been allocated the
registration N8529T for testing before it was shipped to
Australia where it
became VH-BXW in April 1964. David Carter saw it at
Bankstown in March
1970 wearing its original colour
scheme. -BXW was struck off the register in April 1993 as
with-
drawn from use. Its withdrawal was likely
due to it ending up inverted in a canefield after a forced
landing near Tully on 20 February, 1993. A faulty magneto
had brought it down just after take-off.
