The Australian National Aviation Museum is pleased to announce the return to the Aviation Register of our BA-Swallow, and it continues to hold it’s previousregistration of VH-UUM.
The Swallow has had a number of owners since arriving in Australia in 1935, including mining magnate Lang Hancock. It is being restored to airworthy status.
John Hopton provided the shot here, which is from 1962
Full history and owner list is on our Facebook page and website. Hope to have some new shots of VH-UUM as the prop has been done and much work completed on the fuse over the last 12 months

Top Hole. Great to see a vintage aircraft getting back towards flight and coming back to life.
