G-AUFW de
Havilland D.H.50A (c/n QANTAS
2)
This reproduction was taken from a Qantas
house organ. The aircraft was named 'Perseus'.
The image immediately below is from the John Oxley Library, State
Library of Queensland
collection showing the aircraft now as VH- and just before it was sold
in December
1930 to
Rockhampton Aerial
Services Ltd. The photograph at the foot of the page, from the
Bill
Bennett
collection (via Fred Niven and Geoff
Goodall) shows it in service with that latter
company. It was stricken from the
register in 1936 following a crash at Capella,
Queensland.
