VH-EAT (2)
DHC-2
Beaver
(c/n 645)
This
above shot was taken at Port Moresby, out of which airport most of
Qantas'
"bush"
aircraft
operated. VH-EAT was
one of four Beavers imported in 1955, and was equally
at home on either
floats or wheels (below, somewhere in Queensland, circa 1955).
They
were sold off in 1958.
This one was
re-registered VH-FBV. It went to Netherlands
New Guinea in 1961
becoming JZ-PAE.
