I found this photographic print today. No idea where, but presumably taken sometime between 1983 and 1988 when Hallett owned it. Initially I thought I was seeing double. There does not appear to be any photo trickery involved, what you see iswhat is on the Viko print. Any ideas? Does not appear to be model aircraft, and I can't see any evidence of any very large mirrors involved.

I remember reading about this in NZ wings - approx mid 1980s. There are two beavers sharing the same rego for a film shoot at Ardmore. I dont recall the name of the film but at one point it involved someone climbing up a rope ladder dangled from the Beaver - I suppose therefore that one is a stunt double! - probably the Real BDI had a hopper so the stunts needed one without.
