G-AUEG Airco
D.H.9
(c/n ?)
This D.H.9, along
with A6-4 were seconded to the Civil Air Branch of the Department
of Defence
in
August 1924. The above image is via C D Pratt/John Hopton
collection.. As A6-5 it was leased
to
Larkin Aircraft Supply Co as a reserve aircraft to maintain the newly
opened Adelaide to Sydney
air mail
service. Since it returned to the RAAF in December of 1924 as
A6-5 again, it is possible
that it never actually wore the registration G-AUEG.
