VH-EFP Cessna 210H
Centurion
(c/n 21058979)
VH-EFT, built as N5979F, was delivered to Fallshaw Bumper
Service in June 1968. This
Bankstown
company was involved in the manufacture and chroming of bumper bars, a
lucrative
business
in an era when all cars had chromed metal bumpers.
David Carter’s picture shows
–EFP at Bankstown in December 1969, a month before Fallshaw
replaced it with Cessna 310P
VH-WTF. The Centurion was still on the
register in August 2016, owned by Gladstone aircraft
maintenance shop Aerotor. Fallshaw still exists too, now
part of a small specialist workshop
at Lismore
producing chromed parts for classic, veteran and vintage cars.
