Well, cover me with honey and throw me to the lesbians .....


lol
Include me in!! :-))




Here's the second photo I took that day, found by the wife, under an
ancient pile of books in the 'spare' room.


You will have to suitably "reward" your dear lady. ;-)

I keep wondering if the critter ever actually flew with the Dart engine. So
far haven't any further info.
Daresay something will turn up one day.

Thanks again, Dave

Graham

Oh well, if you insist....



We're doing the big clean-up. It's amazing the things that you find when
piling crap into the trailer for the trip to the dump.
Unfortunately, I've also found a lot of stuff I've replaced, believing them
to be lost.

It never flew Dart-wise, according to what I've heard. One would
imagine if it had flown, it would have been all over the mainstream media.


I can imagine 60 Minutes doing another 'Wings of Death' piece over it.







Thanks again, Dave

Graham




No probs.

Thanks Dave. That brings back memories on my many trips to the Bush Capital.
There was a Beech Twin Bonanza parked nearby on the GA apron. Do you happen
to have a photo of it as well? Can't remember the rego.

LOL - that reminds me of my trip there. I went north from Wangaratta,
through Adminaby, (hey, it's only an inch on the map as opposed to 2-3
inches through Cooma)


I was blown away, at 24Km south of the capital, that I was on a dirt road,
crossing cattle grids and I think I even had to go through a gate as well.

No, sorry, I can't remember what exactly drew me to the airport and
stumbled across the Mustang by accident. The original print doesn't
help much either.

Ditto, I now finally after many years have access to all my books, magazines
photos and paraphenalia.
I'm in heaven :-)

Only took about 5 grand worth of TV and Display cabinet to allow me to get
extra space to move things around clearing a path to my long lost (behind
crap) bookshelves.

IIRC the owner/builder did not any progressive DOT (or whatever it was
then) checks, so it never got any kind of C of A.

Love to but it's no longer on this server.

I don't normally upload for other people but I would gladly in this case :-)
Can you email me it directly.

Thanks
