VH-DKI  Cessna 172E Skyhawk                     (c/n  17251137)

                                   

                                       VH-DKI (see enlargement below to positively identify it) was one of a pot-load of Cessna 172s and
                                       182s imported in 1964.     John Bland's image above was taken at Moorabbin when the aircraft had
                                       just been taken out of the box and assembled in Bankstown, then flown south to Victorian dealers
                                       Schutt Aviation.  -DKI has had many owners over the years, but appears to have spent much of its
                                       career in South Australia, in which state it is still registered today (2015).
