Description
Designed in the late 1940s by Hawker De Havilland in Australia as a general aviation light passenger aircraft, the Drover’s first flight was in January 1948.
A total of 20 Drovers were built.
Users of the type included QANTAS, TAA and the Royal Flying Doctors.
Like many aircraft of its vintage the Drover’s engines are inverted (upside down) to get good propeller ground clearance.
The HARS Drover (in the pic) - De Havilland DHA-3 Drover,VH-DHM, is #20, built in 1951.
This picture was taken 5th of October, 2013, while flying over Sydney Harbour during International Navy Fleet Review.
