VH-DAB Cessna 150
(c/n 17644)
Here's a lovely shot by Ben Dannecker of a Cessna 150 at Wagga Wagga in
1964. It still had
a pristine
Cessna factory paint job, It had originally been
registered VH-DDS with
Darling Downs
Aero
Club of Toowoomba in
November 1959. When sold to the Dubbo Aero Club in
July
1962 it became VH-DAB. (They couldn't make it
VH-DUB, since that was already taken in
1962).
It was probably with that club when the shot above was
taken, although no titling appears.. .
As VH-DAB it
later went the
Griffith Aero Club before moving to WA
in 1966 and going on to a
numerous WA
owners. The photo below, from the Geoff Goodall collection, shows
it out west at
Jandakot in January
1974. It is still on the register, and still in WA.
