VH-IDI DHC-2
Beaver 1
(c/n 1535)
VH-IDI was a new Beaver when
delivered to Super Spread in 1963. Geoff Goodall's shot
was taken at Parafield, Adelaide
in May 1964.
It remained with Leafair (parent company of
Super Spread) until 1997 and then
went to Addenbrook
Marine Pty Ltd dba Sydney Harbour
Seaplanes as VH-NOO operating out
of the old
QANTAS Flying Boat Base at Rose Bay.
Greg Banfield's two
shots (below) illustrate -IDI in two livery variations (although still,
I believe,
while on the asset register of Leafair). Both were at Bankstown,
the upper view being taken in
August
1976 and the lower in May of 1984. Color representations of these
may be seen on
