VH-BVG Cessna 210N Centurion II (MSN 21064019) owned by Handel Aviation, Gymea, NSW, operated for Nearmap Pty Ltd, at Jandakot Airport – 8 May 2021. Built in 1980, ex N4845Y, N80FM. This aircraft has been modified with a special photographic survey pod called a ‘Hyperpod’ developed by Nearmap Pty Ltd. It flies at a high altitude, enabling entire cities to be captured in a day or two. Once the imagery is captured, it is processed through super computers which run software known as ‘HyperVision’ which automatically processes and stitches together the many individual photographs captured into one virtually seamless PhotoMap. Along with traditional top-down photography, the HyperPod is also able to capture oblique aerial photographs from 4 different angles and digital elevation model data at the same time.

VH-EAC Eagle 150B (MSN 027) owned by Timothy Walmsley, at Jandakot Airport - 8 May 2021. Built in 1999. Prior to moving to Western Australia, this aircraft had been advertised for sale in NSW, priced at $47,900, with 820.1 hrs on the airframe. The Eagle X-TS was conceived by Western Australian inventors Neil Graham and his father Deryck Graham. Graham Swannell and John Roncz were then engaged to design the aircraft. The single-seat prototype Eagle X-P1 was a taildragger based on the Rutan Quickie and first flown in 1984. The Eagle X-TS (Two Seat) had tricycle gear and first flew in 1988, and this was later produced and marketed as the Eagle 150. Eagle Aircraft entered liquidation in 1989, and development slowed, so the aircraft was not certified until 1993. Eagle Aircraft was then purchased by a Malaysian company and production was moved from Fremantle to Malaysia in 1999, where the type was produced by Composites Technology Research Malaysia (CTRM).

The Eagle X-TS was conceived by Western Australian inventors Neil Graham and his father Deryck Graham. Graham Swannell and John Roncz were then engaged to design the aircraft. The single-seat prototype Eagle X-P1 was a taildragger based on the Rutan Quickie and first flown in 1984. The Eagle X-TS (Two Seat) had tricycle gear and first flew in 1988, and this was later produced and marketed as the Eagle 150. Eagle Aircraft entered liquidation in 1989, and development slowed, so the aircraft was not certified until 1993. Eagle Aircraft was then purchased by a Malaysian company and production was moved from Fremantle to Malaysia in 1999, where the type was produced by Composites Technology Research Malaysia (CTRM).

VH-OOZ Yakovlev Yak-18 (MSN 1332013) owned by David O'Neill, at Jandakot Airport - 8 May 2021. This Yakovlev Yak-18 trainer was built in 1954 at Kharkov, Ukraine (then part of the Soviet Union) and was gifted to the Chinese Air Force (PLAAF) by the Soviets. It was partly disassembled for transport and then reassembled at Nanchang in China, however it was not manufactured by Nanchang. After negotiations, Nanchang later assembled 324 of them under licence between 1954 and 1958 as the "Nanchang CJ-5" for use by the PLAAF, PLANAF and civilian flying clubs. This one is painted in Soviet Union DOSAAF markings. DOSAAF (Russian: ДОСААФ), (in English stands for: Volunteer Society for Cooperation with the Army, Aviation, and Navy) was a paramilitary sport organisation in the Soviet Union, concerned mainly with weapons, automobiles and aviation.
