DHC4 A4-236 Walkaround Photos

I took this DHC4 A4-236 walkaround at the 2008 Point Cook Air Pageant. These old warhorses just keep on flying. The RAAF is looking for a replacement and has been for a decade or more. Whatever replaces it, it's not going to have the rough and ready shortfield performance of the good old Caribou.
