Uther pending arrirals at Bankstown in the near future are a PZL IDS in August, and a PIPER CEEEOiiEE, BEAGLE TERRIER and BEADLE AIREDALE in September*

CAfi MUSTAMG F*21 ?E<»UWB has now been re-“painted with the colour scheme of CiTil Flying School, an air training compar^^ which is operated by the MUSTAMGowner, JJu Brooks* The colour scheme is yellow oTerall, with horizont­ al black stripes on the rudder, and a black flash running the length of the fuselage# On a flight soon after the re-painting, the canopy of the MJSTAKG became detached and Brooks jettisoned it within the airfield boundary after receiTing permission from air traffic control*

Yeoman Arriation are at present modifying a CAC liACIETT TRAIMEE (believed to be YH-AIY) to test YA-1 CEOImASTEE cari)onents in the air# It retains the Warner Super Scarab engine but has a CEDBIASTER cabin section and wooden wings* Items to be tested may be a metal tailplane of new design and, at a later date, the nosewheel tricycle undercarriage which was projected for the CRuIMABTER^

Anderson, announced that, from 1st# January, 1962, A¥EO AMSOH Mk# I aircraft will not be permitted to carry passengers or operate ovenmter routes and that the type will be grounded and de-registered from 1st# July, 1962* He said that the decision had been made in the interests of safety as the glued joints of the wooden wing could deteriorate witl; age and the aircraft ^s performance "was poor if one engine failed# In the past three years, intensive and frequent inspections were required and the addition of AISQMS to the register had been banned along with the transfer of private AMSUl^ to charter and passenger work# Only nine of the aircraft in Australia had current Certificates of Airworthiness and these were operating jiminly on freight and charter vmrk# ■ Finos which will be affected are Woods Ainmys which operates a service between Perth and Rottnest Is# and Brown and Brain Ltd# and Flinders Island Airways which operate freight services to Tasmania, from Melbourne# One fim is reported to be contemplating the const motion of a metal wing for their AlSul# ii. sH *S , A s J ournal - 58 - July 1961

On 14«7®61, the Minister for Air (Senator Wade) announced that a search party had located the wreck of BEISTuL BEAUFOETAy-661 in the jungle about eight miles east of Myela. The aircraft had crashed on 28th. Januaiy^ 1945;, when on a flight from Port Moresby to Aitape and had disappear- £^d without trace until it was spotted during the search for the PIAGGIO P.166 vPl-PAU which was lost without trace on 8th. March this year (see page 11.23), I'he search party had been in lew Guinea for three months inTestigating aerial sightings (see page II,20) of previously unidentified wreckage. It had ident­ ified the remains of three USAAF wrecks before the BEAUFOET was located. The remains of the eight personnel killed in the crash were returned to Fort Moresby for burial in the War Cemetery,

On 16,7,61, a spokesman for the CSIEO stated that in future the EAAF will supply only one DOUGLAS DAKOTA instead of two for rain-making experiments, lioweirer, the one DAE-OTAj which will be from lo»38 Transport Squadron at Eich- mond, Tfill carry more equipment, fly longer hours, and operate exclusively for the CSIRO for an estimated 300 flying hours per year. The EAiiF first began work ¥/ith the CSIEO on rain-making in the mid,’forties and, in 1952, a detachment of the Eilill''s Aircraft Research and Development Unit at Laverton w&s formed to provide the CSIRO v/ith two DAKOTAS and twenty-four personnel. It is likely that the two aircraft are A65-60 and A65-93 (see page 1.87).

On 23,7,61, the Minister for Air (Senator Wade) announced that the first LOCKHEED lEPIDFE of the RiiAF's new order (see page II,20) would be flora from the U®3, to Austmlia in January and ferry flights iTould continue at the rate of three per month until the t^Tolve aircraft had been delivered, EAAF crews would go to the U,S, in late September with about SO technical personnel for training with the new aircraft.

On 22,7,61, a BELL 47G-2 SIOUX of Ho,16 Army Light Aircraft Squadron was noted at Bankstora, Serial number was Al-567 and constructor's number 2567. On the following v^eek-end, Al-564 was seen, Jig "^he first of the eleven SIOUXS (see page II®4) to be assembled at Amberley was given serial number Al-561, 4t- is possiblo that the eleven aircraft have serial numbers Ai-5617to 571? and the associated constructor's numbers would be 256jDto 257R

On 21,7,61, DuUGLAS C-54F 44-9115A of the USAF was noted at Sydney Airport, The aircraft had previously visited Alice Springs and Canberra.

At an International Trade Fair which was due to open in Sydney^ on 1st, iugust, the Soviet Union exhibited MIKHAIL MIL Mi-4P CCCP_lG229 (c/n possib- ly 10108), The helicopter has a fairly luxurious 11 seat cabin and an extensive­ ly fitted cocipit for two. Colour scheme is cream overall with blue and orange trim, . . -

On End, June, 1961, it was announced that the Air Officer CoiTanander in Chief, Bomber Command, RAF, Air Marshal Sir Kenneth Cross, \Tould leave the United Kingdom in a VICTOR on 10th, June and would visit EAAP' and other military establishments in Malaya' and Australia from 19th» June to 3rd, July, A second VICTOR would accompany the AuC's aircraft and a supporting party of ground per­ sonnel would travel in a D.H, COMET of RAF Transport Command,:

After flying from the United Kingdom in company, the two VICTORS left Butterworth, Malaya, for Dsiwin on 18th, June but several eagles struck VICTOR XH590 on take-off and, although no damage was evident, both aircraft returned to the RAAp- Statical, As the AOC was operating to a tight schedule, he and his crew left for Parwiii ,on 19th» June in VICTOR XIi592 with the D»H* COMET C,2 XK698 in company while the suspect VICTOR was inspected and subjected to undercarriage re­ traction tests. After arrival at Darririn, Sir Kenneth flew to Sydney in the COMET^ and, on 20th, June, the VICTOR XII592, commanded by Wing Cmidr# A, Ringer, made a record flight of three hours from Darwin to EAAI' gtation, Richmond, MSW, On the morning of 21st.

The aircraft arrived overhead at EAAF Station, Richmond, at 4,39 pm EST on 21st, June, giving an elapsed time of 20 hours 3 minutes 17 seconds for the 11500 mile flight-.and an average speed of 575 mph« Highest ground speed was 700 mph east of Alice Spring";S» The crew of the VULCAI ims Sqdn.

On 22nde June, the aircraft were on display at Richmond,- V The VULCAI was bleached white overall with pale blue serial mmber. The VICIUR, of 15 Sqdn a. was also white overall but the serial number was black. The CuIi.LT had a royal blue flash down the fuselage with the name "Pegasus" just aft of the cockpit, On 23rd.. the COMET took the AOC to Melbourne and the other aircraft flew to Edinburgh, South

Australia, On 27th • 9 a VICTOR and the VULCAI flew over Hobart, Launceston and Mel- bourne while the other VICTOR flew over countly towns, On 30th the four aircraft flew to Pearce, lest Australia, with individual runs over Perth as they arrived and were on display at Pearce on 2nd, July vjhere the large crowd caused a traffic jam.
