VH-TTW Cessna 180
Skywagon
(c/n 32303)
VH-TTW was a
second-hand import (ex N4906A) for Tumut Air Taxi Service first
registered
in January
1962, and fitted out as a crop duster. However, by the
time Mike Vincent took the
above shot
at Coonamble in October 1975 it had been converted back to a 4-seater
and painted
up into a very good copy of its
original 1956 color scheme. . In the shot below, by Geoff Goodall,
it is seen at
Northam, WA in December 1969, sans spinner, where it was then based
whilst work-
ing as a
duster for Avon Aviation. Avon sold it to NSW ag
operation Col Pay who collected it
from Northam in
September 1970 and ferried it to his base at Scone,
NSW. The image at the
foot of
the page is by Bob Neate and was at Canberra in March 1963.
This 1956 model is still
current and is
today registered to a NSW company.
