VH-ACL (2)   Auster J/5B Autocar                                       (c/n  2946)

                                 

                                      Here's a humped back Autocar beginning to depart Coolangatta in September 1968.  Photo by
                                      Geoff Goodall.  Registered new in March 1952, it still looked pristine here.  Unfortunately it was
                                      damaged beyond repair by Cyclone Tracy at Darwin on Christmas Eve, 1974.  .
                                      Incidentally, VH-ACL(1) was a Boeing 40H4 which was destroyed at Wau in 1942.
