the answer to my question about which CAC Wirraways were at Watts Bridge I found from the National Australian Archives that the following were there at some time between November 1942 to Feb 1943
A20-289
A20-549
A20-537
A20-285
A20-512
A20-143
A20-538
A20-191
A20-517
A20-143
A20-514
A20-286
A20-513

My next question is did any survive to this day and are there any surviving photos of any of those aeroplanes.

A have added some more data to my site with scanned pages from 5SQN operations book for the period

there appears that there were about 200 squadron members at the Toogoolawah (Watts Bridge) airfield. My next task is to try and identify as many as I can by name.

cheers
