Aircraft Designed in Australia

[rgmwa]

Stumbled across this very interesting site that I hadn't heard of before. They say the list is incomplete, but it still looks pretty comprehensive to me.

Yes very interesting, I can think of a few aircraft that aren't on there however, such as the Facet Opal, Saphire, Cougar and Cheetah, Fisher Drifter, Boonah Drifter, Slepcev Storch, etc etc.............Maj....

They are asking for any missing designs that they can add to the list, so it might be worth forwarding them details if you have any. I'll try sending them a link to this thread for a start.

That "list" is I believe quite old now...I wonder if it is still active?

Interesting that the designer of the jabiru is left blank?

Just received this response from Derek Buckmaster. If anyone has any useful information or photos, it would be worth passing them on.

 

Hi Rob,

 

Many thanks for passing on these additions. The page on recreational and ultralight aircraft actually needs the most work. When I get a chance I’ll add these aircraft, and look for some more details on each of them.

 

Regards,

 

Derek

Should be an interesting reference, once all the gaps are filled in.
