VH-UVG (2) Percival K.1 Vega
Gull
(c/n K.36)
The above shot, from the Lawrence
Roche collection was evidently taken at Bankstown, possibly
in 1936 when the aircraft was
new. The less than spectacular image immediately below was by Bob
Fripp at
Geelong's Belmont Common airport
in 1946. The two shots at the foot of the page were
both
at Bankstown at around the same time.
. Note lack of spats in photo # 3 giving it a rather
austere look.
VH-UVG crashed and was written off at
Pondooma, near Cowell, SA on 26 Nov
1953.. It was impressed
as A32-1 during WW II.
