If I may have a final 'boomer moment', boy did we have fun flying the best aeroplanes ever built!
Yes from using a matchbox as a distance measure on a WAC to using satellites thousands of miles away that gives the accuracy of the length of a matchbox.

First service
Well not the first aeroplane. I am afraid that probably went the Islander when the strip was a gravel strip between the channel and Crab Bay.

Joh’s 125
I am not sure that is the Joh Jet. I am sure that all the Qld State Gov aircraft had a Queensland State Flag on the fin.
