Narrative:VH-WFM (cn B.628) The last 'true' Auster, the Beagle Terrier was a civil conversion from the military Auster AOP.6. Only 45 Terrier 2s were built, 64 Terriers in all, so this is a fairly rare aircraft. This one was built for the RAF as VF634.
Civilianised, it was allocated the 'B Conditions' marks G-35-11 before being registered G-ASWM on 14 September 1964. Later exported to Australia and registered VH-WFM(2) on 12 March 1981.
Damaged in heavy landing at Coldstream, Victoria
