Update new Aussie warbirds - Vietnam War era DHC-4 Caribous

Tue Sep 27, 2011 4:08 am

A friend passed this onto me today -

The Historical Aircraft Restoration Society (HARS) at Albion Park NSW has been given two DHC-4 Caribou aircraft, A4-210 and A4-234. Both are Vietnam Veterans.
HARS is willing to try and keep these two Bous flying for next 20yrs.

Small correction Miggy, HARS were able to organise a sponsor so that they were able to put in a tender for the Caribous. They consequently won the tender and purchased the two aeroplanes. We can only wish they were "given" to us.
