Victa VH-CAP

Following a policy of supporting local industry, the DCA purchased Victa 115 Airtourer VH-CAP (c/n 59). The aircraft was registered new to DCA on 9 April 1964. It left the factory on delivery on 27 July 1964 and was handed over to DCA on 24 August.

The aircraft was reported by the Department as being offered for sale in 1967. Ownership changed on the register on 15 March 1968 to CFS P/L, Melbourne, Vic. The aircraft was later sold again to J F Schell, Goomalling, Western Australia, 21 May 1968. It is seen here at Goomalling on 13 December 1969 in its original colour scheme but without any DCA logos.

VH-CAP crashed and was destroyed on 2 March 1983 at Mundijong, WA.
