Cessna 175A
Skylark
VH-RFU (c/n 56296)
In 1959 a deluxe version of the 175, known as the Model
175A Skylark was introduced. The
main
noticeable difference between this and the 175 was the stylish swept
vertical tail, although
there were
other refinements. This Australian example is owned by my good
friend Phil Vabre
in
Melbourne. This photograph was taken by Geoff Goodall in 1970
showing the original Cessna
livery
(it has now been repainted).
