G'Day
Dora & Frisbee I am a happy (if humbled) Virgo now that my forty year brain-fade has been corrected by your goodselves as to the ownership and provenance of those fine old Flying Boats still in use in the 1970s. Possibly I thought Qantas because (If I remember right this time) they kept a DC4 in service well into the jet age to service Norfolk Island from SYD.
Dora - sorry about your experience with a Virgo - even the best of barrels can have a rare bad apple in 'em.
