RAAF A5 Vickers FB27 Vimy
| Aircraft Serial | RAF.Serial | Fate |
| A5 | F8630 | The aircraft used was a Vickers FB27 A Vimy IV (ex-F8630), with the civil registration G-EAOU. In 1920 the Vimy was presented to the Commonwealth, and in 1921 it was entered on the RAAF register as A5. The aircraft was never used and in the years that followed it was successively, stored, transferred to the War Museum, returned to the RAAF, dismantled, re-assembled, partially burnt, and finally rebuilt. In 1958, it came to a peaceful rest at Adelaide Airport where it is now on permanent display. |
