Excellent! I look forward to seeing the site back up.:)
I stumbled upon the other hawkerhind.co.uk site whilst looking at all the things I would like to have, but don’t have the money for on aerovintagespares.com. 🙁

G’Day Andy,

I have received my copy of your book in the post and first impressions, it looks great! Unfortunately, it’s going to have to take it’s place in the reading queue….:o
I will be looking forward to publication of your next effort on the DH9.:)

Best regards,

Paul

Thanks for the Amazon and the obituary links. Sounds like she would’ve been interesting to talk to.

What a ripper Chitts!:)
The Avian featured is G-ABEE, which I believe was the last British registered Avian flying and was withdrawn from use due to “fuselage corrosion” in the ’60s. I note with some amusement in this clip, the PIC climbing into the front seat. The Avian, like most Moths, is normally flown from the back….

With the Auster this required a dive to 200 mph.

😮

Now that would be sporting!

G’Day Stan,

I was trying to crack a funny (probably not successfully!).

Anyhoo, she’s a beautifully turned out machine and excellent to hear that she has the NZCAA’s blessing for another year. I hope I can get to go for a ride in her sometime when I am next in your part of the world.:)

Best regards,

Paul

Book learning….

Recommended reading for some of the history of these Rabaul aeroplanes is Henry Sakaida’s “The Siege of Rabaul” ISBN 1-883809-09-6.

It’s a Palmer Aero Wheel, fitted to a number of types. The canvas covers were detachable, hence the writing on the last photo.:)
