These photos fill in the missing links of what I guess are planes now restored and on show, but were then in quite poor shape - except perhaps the Lanc but it looks so different in those colours! So much work to get them tidy.

That first lot brings back memories of charging about Little Malaya looking for an Auster that had been parked in a tree in the 50s(?). Found what was left of it and, should I find the photos, I'll post them!

Priceless images Dave , especially early ones of the Lanc are rare in colour.. I agree its Whenuapai , where she sat until the Base Commander said enough. ! Look forward to more

My goodness, it really is a treasure trove! I can't imagine it's a simple task to scan, correct and upload each photo so thank you very much for your efforts Dave.
