VH-MPO Callair A-9A Quail
(c/n 1207)

This might illustrate just how strong the
pilot's "cage" was on a Callair. I do not have the
details
of this crash or, in fact, of the histories of any of the Australian
Callairs, but I sus-
pect
that the pilot escaped more or less
unscathed. Geoff Goodall took this shot of the
remains at
Scone, NSW in
July 1967. That it flew again is evidenced by the image (below)
from the Ken Tilley collection, taken at Benalla,Victoria, in November
of 2000.
