Comper Swifts in Australia

On behalf of a friend who has great interest in Hooton Park and its history and who is visiting Australia shortly, may I ask if anyone knows the present whereabouts of any of the Comper Swifts in Australia please.

Thank you, Oracal and Mark, I have passed all that on to my friend (who travels tomorrow I believe).

They are both currently at Luskintyre Aircraft Restorations with G-ABWH fitted with the Gipsy, restored and undertaking engine runs before Christmas.

There are two CLA-7 aircraft in Australia, both under the ownership of Dr Roy Fox. Roy used to frequent this forum, but I’m not sure he does so currently. 

You should try making contact through the link below – they will know of Roy.
