VH-UEP  Beagle A109 Airedale                                 (c/n  B525)

                              

                                     Six Airedales were imported into Australia in 1962/63.  VH-UEP was the second to arrive. It is
                                     seen above in this shot by Geoff Goodall under the hot South Australian sun at Parafield in January
                                     of 1963 when brand new.  Of the six, I believe four are still flying, and VH-UEP is one of them,
                                     currently registetred to an owener in Victoria.   Phil Vabre's shot of it below is more contemporary
                                     and shows it at the Australian International Air Show at Avalon in March 2005, still looking sharp.
