VH-CKC (3) Taylor JT1
Monoplane
(c/n W22)
This
'mini-Spitfire' is actually a Taylor Monoplane constructed over a four
year period at Geraldton,
WA by local pilot John
Walmsley (who also operated Geraldton Air Charter).
Although not regis-
tered until January of 1971 I'll include it in this photographic
selection since it was 'started' during
my self-imposed 1921-1970 period for
inclusion. A British designed kit machine, it evidently had
an impressive
performance. Geoff Goodall's shot (above) was taken at Geraldton
in January 1974.
Sadly this neat little home-built crashed into the
sea off Geraldton on 4 January 1975.
