                                  Here's a smart looking Baron seen by John Wheatley at Mascot in September 1969.        Clearly
                                  Datsun sales were good in the late 1960s.   Formerly registered in the US as N8340N, this aircraft
                                  later went to Cairns Aerial Services (Pty) Ltd in the mid-1970s.  It had a series of owners after that
                                  and suffered an accident at Broome, WA on 11 February 1992, but continued with an outfit named
                                  Jacaranda Aviation at Coffs Harbour, NSW until it was struck off register on 17 July 2001 as "with-
                                  drawn from service".   Greg Banfield's B&W shot below was taken within the same time-frame.
