F-AOPN  de Havilland D.H.114 Heron 1B                                    (c/n 14041)

                               

                                     F-OAPN was one of a number of Herons built originally for Union Aeromaritime de Transport
                                     in Cameroon, Africa in 1954.    It was acquired by Air Caledonie in 1967.   It was seen above
                                     at Bankstown in 1970 by David Carter, probably in for maintenance by Hawker de Havilland.
                                     In the event it was withdrawn from service in Noumea in November 1971..  Hardly worth the
                                     overhaul.
