VH-IHG Hughes
269B
(c/n 54-10090)
I'm sure
there's rhyme and reason to Hughes 269 c/ns, but I haven't the time,
energy or inclination
figure them out!
Anyway, this shot of VH-IHG, from the Geoff Goodall
collection, was taken at
Swan Hill, Victoria in March 1965
whilst the chopper was with Helicopter Agricultural Spraying Co.
It had been registered new by agents International
Helicopters Pty Ltd, at Moorabbin in September
1964. It was later
sold to the Summer Institute of Linguistics missionary organization in
New Guinea,
with whom
it crashed on landing Simbai, PNG on 4 December 1968.
