                              Here's an interesting elevated shot of a smart Airtourer taken at Parafield (Adelaide), by Geoff
                              Goodall in January of 1964.   It was the third aircraft to carry this RACSA rego.   Two months
                              later is was to participate in the 1964 R.M. Ansett Air Race, flown by Chris.P. Sperou (with his
                              Shortland Insurance Adjusting Co Ltd sponsorship emblazoned on the fuselage).  Greg Banfield
                              took the photo below at Bankstown on 29 March 1964 during the night stop.   BWA was owned
                              by Glen Sturgess at Whyalla for some years.   The cropped image at the foot of the page is from
                              the Doug Stott collection and shows Glenn and -BWA at a convention held at Loxton, SA in 1992.
                              It is still on the register and is owned by a corporation in Sale, Victoria.
