Plus a few more that I forgot to record.

Judging by the photos A65-123 was the Queen's aircraft.
It was passed on to the RAN as N2-123 and was then sold in USA in 1975
The trail has run cold. I have no idea where 123 went.

Hi all and happy new (financial) year!

We've just done a quick update to the A63 Link Celestial Navigation Trainer page.

This time I'm pleased to say the we have a photo of the building that this system was housed in at East Sale. If anyone has any further photos of A63-1 (either inside or out) - we'd love to share them here on ADF-Serials!

Thanks to Mike Dalton and Paul Ven Den Akker, we have been able to add the identities of the next six AAFC Diamond DA 40 NG's:

VH-UEJ - New
VH-UEL - New
VH-UEM - New
VH-UEO - New
VH-UEP - New
VH-UEW - New
VH-UEX
VH-UEZ

AAFC Diamond DA 40 NG Page

Interestingly the initial two aircraft (VH-UEW & VH-UEZ) are from the Austrian production line and the six new airframes are from Canada.

Cheers
