VH-DNG  Cessna 172F Skyhawk                                      (c/n  17252686)

                              

                                   Not some grievous student pilot error, but the result of a storm on 4 January 1967 at Archerfield,
                                   Brisbane.  Dave Thollar's shot above shows it being dismantled for repair.  That same storm also
                                   damaged the rare Chrislea Super Ace VH-RBL.   Anyway, -DNG was rebuilt in the Rex Aviation
                                   hangar at Archerfield and went on to have a long life, and is still current. In September 2007 it was
                                   re-registered VH-JFA and the -DNG rego was issued to a Beech Baron.
