VH-PEN  Cessna 182C Skylane                                 (c/n  52888)

                                  

                                        This Skylane was at Brisbane's GA airport, Archerfield in January 1964 when Greg Banfield took
                                        the above shot.   It was evidently finished in red, black and day-glo red.    Day-Glo was all the rage
                                        in the late 1950s and 60s, but quickly went out of favor when it was found to fade quickly and, having
                                        been applied, was difficult to remove entirely.   This 1960 182C is still current and still a resident of
                                        Queensland.
