                                     shows it at Bankstown in the mid-50s, probably following an overhaul from its arduous duties in New
                                     Guinea.  As was the vogue of the day, the rego has been re-positioned on the fin.  Formerly A71-5
                                     (and 43-5258 before that), this machine was re-registered VH-GSE in 1960 in line with the rest of
                                     the Gibbes fleet.
