VH-CJV Cessna 337
Super Skymaster
(c/n 337-0176)
This Cessna 337 was imported in September 1965, ex
N2276X. Geoff Goodall took the nice shot
above at Parafield in November
1966. This rego was not allocated by WA Region with
the other
VH-CJs,
but was originally a personalized registration for its first owner J.
V. Clanchy of 'Kamaran
Downs' Station, Bedourie
Qld. However it did
eventually go to WA in May 1968 to Hawker
deHavillands at Jandakot for lease to Noeska Aviation at Kalgoorlie
(this charter company took its
name from the towns Norseman,
Esperance and Kalgoorlie). It later went to Preston Air
Charter
at Jandakot before being sold in
New Zealand in August 1971 as ZK-DFT.
