Does anyone know where VH-Kaw (DH Auster) is currently located ? It belonged to my late father & I have the logbooks. I may also have the purchasing documentation for this aircraft.

There it is, still registered. Tell us if you got in contact with the actual owner.

Many thanks for the information,

I've no contact details for Mr Williams so the gentleman would have to make contact through this forum if he wishes to obtain - Log Book 'Number 3' & other pieces of documentation that includes the CAA Certificate of Registration (dated 13 NOV 92) & the CAA Maintenance Release (dated 14 MAY 92). From my recollection KAW last flew in the 1990's when it was in my father's ownership. The documents I refer to may be a significant addition to the history & provenance of KAW. It's up to Mr Williams whether he wants this stuff or not but, I'm not going to keep it forever.

For added interest, I also have TWO Gypsy Major engines available for sale - of the types I believe the Auster uses. One of which has logbook & engineering certificate from its last rebuild.

We also have a garage full of assorted Tiger Moth parts. I doubt any of it is still redeemable to be airworthy again but, would make great hanger wall art. OR, if someone wishing to build or maintain a STATIC display for public viewing these may well be very useful.

It would be a shame if all this stuff were to end up as landfill or sent to scrappers.

Kind regards.
