Warbirds

Auction aircraft to stay here

The auction discussed in the previous edition of Australian Aviation is over and the good news is that the aircraft under the hammer will stay in Australia. Prime among them was Hawker Sea Fury Mk II, VH-SHF. The other warbirds were North American T-28B, VH-SHT, T-28D Trojan, VH-AVC and a static Mig-15.

The aircraft were the property of the Commonwealth and were auctioned by Liquid Asset Management to recoup monies said to be owed by former accountant Steve Hart. He was better-known by the name of his aircraft collection: Harts Flying Fighters.
