VH-CYI Cessna 150
(c/n 17232)
A run-of-the-mill Cessna 150 at
Orange, NSW in October 1962. It had come on the register
the prior December, ex
N5732E. Photo by Bob Neate. It was one of several Cessna and
Beech singles and twins
imported in the 1960s by Jim Hazelton and registered to his Hazair
Agricultural Services. They were acquired as entrepreneurial
investments and quickly sold off
(much to
the chagrin of the regular, designated dealers). When sold in July 1963
VH-CYI be-
came
VH-RQX. Later identities were VH-BQX and VH-WOH.
