VQ-FAJ  Aeronca 100                         (c/n  AB.105)

                                    

                                         I am indebted to Nick Lindsley for this rare shot taken by his father, Fred, in Fiji circa 1953.
                                         (Fred was Chief Engineer for Fiji Airways at the time).  This Aeronca had been exported from
                                         Australia in 1949 where it had lived for the prior decade as VH-UXV.   Mark Clayton, from
                                         New Zealand advises that he "discovered" the old bird languishing in a garage in Napier,
                                         although to my knowledge it never appeared on the ZK- register..  Is it possible we will get
                                         to see it fly again?
