VH-CXN Cessna
172A
(c/n 46812)
Interesting shot by Merv
Prime at Perth Airport in August 1964 showing - CXN with entrants
in that year’s weekend
Air Trial lining up in the
background. This 172A was one
of many
second-hand Cessnas
imported from USA by Hazair Agricultural Service at Orange NSW, and
registered in April
1961. It was quickly sold to R.T. Oliver of Mullewa
WA who was later to
establish Murchison Air Services at Perth. In January 1966 it
became VH-RWJ upon being
sold to the Royal Aero Club
of WA.
