Interesting shot from the John Illsley collection of a Cirrus Moth
originally imported in March
1928 as G-UAAL. Reregistered on 1 January 1929 as ZS-.
(Just love the "L". What made
the
bloke think that it needed the curlicue?). Originally owned
by the Johannesburg Light Plane

1937 in crashed (reason
unknown) at Muldersdrift, Gauteng Province whilst on a training flight
