Auster Greece 1

Description

The Auster was an observation and liaison aircraft based on the American Taylorcraft design.  It served with several Air Forces during WW2 and the Army Air Corps.

Different versions continued to be developed well into the 1960s.

The slow speed (130mph) and large glass area made it ideal for observation duties, and it could also land in a short distance which made it useful for casualty evacuation.

This example is an Auster Mark III of the Royal Hellenic Air Force 1947.
