VH-ESP  DHC-1 Chipmunk T.10                   (c/n   C1/0446)

                                    

                                       Still wearing its Royal Aero Club of NSW livery, this Chippie was photographed at Moorabbin
                                       in April of 1968 by Geoff Goodall.   It was previously VH-RSP and VH-AJD before that.   As I
                                       indicate under the narrative for the latter, it was one of the earliest Chipmunks imported into Australia.
                                       In the new millenium the aircraft underwent extensive restoration at Caloundra, Qld, and re-emerged
                                       as VH-RSP again.  It is now, of course, dressed in full RAF training livery.
