VH-DYR  Beech A23A Musketeer                           (c/n  M-1036)

                               

                                    VH DYR was registered in August 1967    . When David Carter saw it on the TAA ramp at Mascot
                                    in 1969 , it was with McLean’s Flying School of Bankstown.     It was still with them on October 10,
                                    1970, when it came down 500 feet outside the boundary of Bankstown airport, tearing off its under-
                                    carriage, after its engine lost power on take-off.    It was an accident David witnessed and he watched
                                    as the three occupants scrambled to safety with minor injuries.     –DYR was resurrected but it was
                                    written off after its undercarriage collapsed on landing at Crookwell, NSW, on February 1, 1975.
