Photo Essay by Colin Owers

These are photographs have been taken by Colin Owers, and he has generously allowed me to put them on this web-site. These pictures show the Australian Zero V-173 before, during, and after restoration at the RAAF Base at Wagga Wagga, New South Wales. This Zero currently resides in the Canberra War Memorial museum.
