EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the iconic Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation (CAC) CA-13 Boomerang, registration number VH-MHR and military serial A46-122, affectionately known as "Suzy-Q" (msn 945). The image, taken circa 2005, finds this historic aircraft at its current home in the Australian Army Museum of Flying, situated at Oakey Airfield. The CA-13 Boomerang is a single-engine, low-wing monoplane fighter-trainer, designed and manufactured by the Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation in Australia during World War II. This particular Boomerang served in the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) from 1944 to 1953, before being retired and later restored to flying condition. Today, "Suzy-Q" is proudly operated by the Temora Aviation Museum, where it continues to thrill audiences with its impressive displays and flights. This aircraft is an essential piece of Australia's aviation history, representing the country's significant contribution to the war effort and its ongoing commitment to preserving and showcasing its aviation heritage. The Boomerang's sleek design, powerful engine, and agile flight capabilities made it a formidable fighter-trainer during its time. Its enduring legacy serves as a testament to the ingenuity, skill, and determination of the engineers and pilots who brought it to life. This photograph captures not only the beauty and grace of this aeronautical marvel but also the spirit of innovation and perseverance that drove its creation.
