Watts Bridge Fly-in (Aussie stuff)

Watts Bridge 2006

Lynette Zuccoli’s – “Return home” Boeing Stearman. Great colour scheme photographed at Watts Bridge Fly-in

Maybe it GENerAlly Is oR COuld be a MOTH? 😉

Love the pictures of Pete Boreham’s Luton too. Another 1,000 mile flight for him I guess??

Gary Button’s Luton is back in the air, its now based at Watts Bridge

However, if you’re a student of rareties, try the cream and green biplane above the Drover pic. Gold Star to the UK reader who picks it!? 😎

G’day 😉

I’ll give you a hint – its based at Caloundra S.E. Queensland Australia – it had a major rebuilt there. It hadn’t flown for years

and yes Glen has some magnificient photos. The next Watts Bridge fly-in is only about 8 weeks away and I am really looking forward to it.

Gold Star to GASML! 😀

We had to leave before the awards but I guess the Luton would have taken it out.

The Genairco restoration is just excellent, but they must have been a bit thinner a few decades ago to fit two in the front seat [the harnesses are there, though.]

G’day 😉

At the risk of offending, DHA stands for De Havilland Aircraft, the De Havilland Aircraft Pty Ltd subsidiary of its English parent. I used to think the “A” stood for Oz, but not so.

Thanks for the link to HARS and to Glenn for the shot [the landing one in 2003 arguably the best, tho!]

G’day 😉

No offence taken – thanks for putting me straight.

WOW. Fantastic set of images, thanks for posting them.

Lovely photos. I love the light on the Luton Minor. It is so nice to see some photos that are not from the uk.

Lovely photos, especially the Avenger.
