P2-EIE

Copied skywagon185's link:-

"When DCA grounded the Ansons in 1962, Alan Rae, founder of Flinders Island Airlines, replaced them with Skywagons. Seen above is the first VH-FIE at Moorabbin in May 1963. Sold off by the airline in 1966, it became VH-EIE, thus leaving its rego open for the Beech. VH-FIE later went to New Guinea and was damaged in a crash at Balimo in 1972. When restored, it went onto the PNG register as P2-EIE. It began life on the US register as N4193Y".
