We will soon have a designated area of the website especially for the manual, and this area will house any amendments that are related to the printed version. You will also be able to download an on-line version of the manual from this area as well. It is fair to say that 2007 was a truly successful year for motorcycling in Australia – both on the bike and behind the scenes. A feat such as Casey Stoner’s in becoming the next of our home-grown World Champions certainly cannot be overlooked, and we will get into the racing performance feats shortly.

Photo: Ed Coates collection By 1949 overseas operators with larger aircraft joined in the Australian migrant charters.

It summarizes, in the idiom of the day, the attitude of the former wartime pilots involved in this adventurous early post-war long-distance venture. An extraordinary chapter of Australia’s civil aviation history, which has gone largely unrecorded, is the early post World War Two period of ad-hoc charter flights carrying migrants from Europe to Australia. It began in 1947 with a handful of flights by Australian charter companies, flying mostly civilianised ex RAAF transports and bombers purchased from military disposals.
