VH-RVS (1) DHC-1 Chipmunk
T.10
(c/n C1/0503)
VH-RVS was the RAF's
WG429, acquired by the Royal Victorian Aero Club in March
1958. Flown by the club
until 1972 when it was struck off the register. It resurfaced in
the 1990s and
was rebuilt
becoming VH-ZAZ. Tony Arbon's shot below shows it in that
guise. Barrie Colledge's
photo above is nicer then my own (immediately below) and hence
deserves 'pride of place'
in this entry. Both circa 1957 at
Moorabbin. In Geoff Goodall's
shot at the
foot of the page also at Moorabbin in May 1963, -RVS is sporting the
RVAC
livery scheme adopted in the 1960s.
