Paddle Cat (Murray River, Australia)
« on: August 11, 2011, 11:57:05 AM »
Member Mike Smith alerted me to this article, in Fri.6.5.11 Mildura Weekly.
http://issuu.com/mweekly/docs/mwvol5no26

In case it lapses, I have converted the article via a screen dump, but the print is small.

There have been mentions and a photo in the APAM threads, but I am not getting to them using the search box.  The boat is based at Buronga, which is the NSW bank of the river.

It's a very interesting conversion but probably costly given what the aircraft fuselage would probably be worth now?
