Used to go flying with Ernie in the 70’s at a property called ‘Lambrook’ near Gunnedah for annual flyin events. Fell in love with the 400 and all these years later have aquired one from the states. It will be the 10th one on the Australian register with the rego VH-CDC. She’s in the paint shop at Bankstown at the moment being brought back to pristine condition.Long live the 400! gp.

And old Ernie should he still be with us would be the first to confirm how many times he held his heart in his mouth
Gee I remember his flat batteries!! Trying to hand swing it and nearly pulling my arms out of their sockets.
