This photo recently appeared on an Australian History group on Facebook – I believe it could be one of the last images of the Codock LJW-6 VH-URP when it was displayed as a promotional item in a vineyard at Minchinbury, New South Wales, Australia. The airframe was apparently damaged and disposed but no detailed record has emerged. The photo is undated and unattributed (probably from NSW State Archives) but well worth seeing. 

Cal,

you could try contacting Ian at the Kurrajong Radio Museum (Australia), Ian has a lot of vintage radio equipment and may be able to assist. Link is http://www.vk2bv.org/museum/

Keith, I found a reference to Armin Faber visiting the Shoreham Museum and donating some personal items in 1991 – apparently the article is reproduced from the June 1986 issue of Flypast.

Ronald,

You have an excellent web site that has obvioulsly taken a lot of effort to collate. What has happened to the abandoned Sturmovik that is shown in the fourth photo at Brandis in 2008?

Chris,

Contemporary newspapers noted Bill Lynn as being from Orbost, Victoria, Australia. A quick check of the phone book today showed that there are a number of families of the same surname still in Orbost. PM me if you need further assistance.

On Google Street View, the same building can be seen at the intersection of Chemin Mill and Riverside – the windows and doors on the side street look the same to me.
