My 'trusty steed' of the time was a Morris 8HP 'Ute', & although it was 'ancient' then, it was very dependable, and got me up the Marion St hill to BK every time it was asked to...

There was a club aero champion at the time who, on returning from the trng area in his Modified (I think) Chippy, did a low roll right in front of the boys in the 'old tower', (29R..?) landed, and scarpered. He was USA bound for a job.

However....Murphy's Law, he was back not too long after, and was invited to 'tea and bikkies' at Waverton, the DCA office at the time.
So I heard....he will know who he is if he reads these pages.....

I could be wrong, but......
