VH-BOB / A68-104 (cn 1429) Bob Eastgate’s Mustang, appropriately Registered VH-BOB, was the 'Drawcard’ at this 1976 Redcliffe Airshow. Photo taken before a spirited low-level handling display by Jack McDonald at the coastal Airport. (I would have loved to fly in VH-BOB that day, instead of a short hop in Baron 58 VH-EGE. [However, I went for a 0.6 hour flight in VH-BOB from Canberra on 18Nov1978. See MyAviation.net] This Australian built CA-18 Mustang is ex-RAAF A68-104 (Cn 1429), still Registered in 2011. |

VH-EGE 1976 photo of Beech 58 Baron VH-EGE, with Stbd doors open and Port engine running, on the apron at Redcliffe Queensland. Photo taken just before I went on a 0.1 hour Joyflight in the aircraft. (I would have preferred a flight in Mustang VH-BOB, which did a flying display at the Airfield that day. [However, I went for a 0.6 hour flight in VH-BOB from Canberra on 18Nov1978.]) Since 19Jun1989, Registration VH-EGE has belonged to BN2A-26 Islander (Cn 3015), based at Port Hedland, West Australia. |
