VH-CCM  Percival P.3 Gull Six         (c/n  D.46)

                              

                                This Gull Six was registered G-ACUP in the U.K. before being exported to Australia in 1939 where
                                it became VH-ACM.     It was re-registered VH-CCM ten years later.   It flew with Connellan Airways
                                for a while in the 1940s.   The above is not the best of  images, but  the only "period" one (circa 1950)
                                that I have.  VH-CCM  is still on the register and can be seen occasionally on the air show circuit.   The
                                more contemporary shots of it below are (upper) by John Wheatley in the early 1970s, next from the Ern
