VH-SSV (2)
Edgar Percival EP-9
(c/n 28)
A nice shot of the EP-9
VH-SSV in its original Super Spread livery of medium and pale green,
red and dayglo
orange, taken by Richard Hourigan at Moorabbin in September 1962.
This air-
craft was
first registered with the B-class registration G-23-7 before going onto
the U.K. register
as G-APBR. Exported to Australia in September 1957 it was slated
to become VH-SSC but
appears to have
assumed the identity seen above instead upon arrival. It
later became VH-DAI
and then
underwent a restoration, reappearing as VH-EPN, an identity it still
flies under today.
