JZ-PTL  Cessna 180F                               (c/n  51185)

                                   

                                        Here's a nice shot by Rod Adam taken at Bankstown in January 1963 probably just after the
                                        aircraft had been assembled out of its crate, ex N2685Y.       Like its sister MAF Cessnas, I
                                        assume it was then ferried up to Dutch New Guinea.    It  was later installed with amphibious
                                        floats and re-registered in Indonesia briefly as PK-MPF before being sold in Australia in Dec
                                        1962 wherein it became VH-REI, as a landplane again. .
