VH-RVZ (1) DHC-1 Chipmunk
T.10
(c/n C1/0498)
As indicated in the
narrative for VH-RVX, ithe first three Chipmunks of the RVAC flew for a
while
without tail
strips, as seen in my shot below at Moorabbin, circa 1954.
Barrie Colledge's superb
color shot above was taken in 1957. Similarly, my B&W photo
(No 3) dates from the same era.
At the foot of the page is a 1965 Dave
Prosser shot (via the Geoff Goodall collection) taken at
Moorabbin
showing the Chipmunk in the RVAC livery scheme adopted in the
mid-60s. -RVZ
was sold soon after this latter photo was taken and became VH-RTW.
