 Australian Wirraway first engine run in 27 years 1 Attachment(s) The Australian National Aviation Museum celebrated the 75th anniversary of the first flight of their Wirraway aircraft today.  The Wirraway has been given a birthday too, with new fabric and a paint job showing how it would have looked on that day in September 1939. A20-10 was only the 8th Wirraway built by the Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation and is the oldest surviving airframe. The Museum is also restoring the oldest Beaufort, A9-13, a massive undertaking. All the aircraft are in static (i.e. non flying) condition. The collection also boasts a Beaufighter, also capable of running one engine. Here's a link to the first engine run today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkYxK2rdd3A |
