VH-RAY DHC-2
Beaver 1
(c/n 1060)
This aircraft was an early Beaver import and was
first registered in 1957 as VH-DHG.
In 1960
it was acquired
by Robby's and is seen above in this Geoff Goodall image at Adelaide
Airport in
March 1965 in the
horrible early Robby's livery sans possessive comma. A year
later Geoff saw
it again (below)
at Parafield with much more pleasing titling. When Aerial
Agriculture took over
Robby's,
VH-RAY was absorbed into that outfit's fleet as seen in the Lenn
Bayliss shot at the
foot of
the page. Early in the new millennium it went to a private owner
in Alaska as N912RC
although
by 2001 it was back in the land of its birth as C-FJEF where it is
still remains active.
