Award Winning Robin Down Under

We got another brief letter this week from Jack Vevers, who is really having a ball with his Curtiss J-1 Robin.  We are very happy to hear that Jack is representing in Australia!  Beautiful airplane!

Hi Terry,

The Australian Antique Aircraft Association had their national fly-in, which is a bit like your Blakesburg, where VH JUV has won the President’s Choice award.  We had around 130 aircraft attend and there was plenty of classic and vintage aircraft lined up for everyone to admire.

It was great to finally get the Robin out into the public after disappearing for almost 3 decades. The interest in her was huge and it was a great feeling to share the Robin with everyone there and take her up for a flyby and show her off in full flight.

Cheers

Jack

and then this...

Hi Terry,

Phil Hosking took this photo at the Australia Aeroplane Association Fly in 2 weeks ago. 

He has given me permission to share it.

Cheers

Jack
