VH-RWK  Cessna 150B                           (c/n   15059567)

                                  

                                          This was the former Rex Aviation demonstrator aircraft VH-DBR registered in July 1962
                                          (ex N1167Y) until purchased by the Royal Aero Club of WA the following February wherein
                                           it became -RWK.  The above photo was taken by a young Mike Madden at Perth Airport in
                                           March 1963.  Mike took advantage of a half day stop at Freemantle by the ship on which he
                                           was migrating from England, to make hasty visits to both Maylands and Perth Airports. (That's
                                           the mark of a dedicated spotter/photographer!). At this time the Club had vacated its original
                                           base at Maylands Aerodrome, and moved to nearby Perth Airport (Guildford), while waiting
                                           for the new Jandakot Airport to be completed.    -RWK  remained with the club until July 1967
                                           when it was sold off VH-WJL.
