Jandakot & Perth – Wednesday 22nd January 2020 (Mark Paulin)

Evening all,

Another day that dawned grey and cloudy and accompanied today by a howling wind. It still managed to get to 26c this afternoon though.

I therefore having checked the dues decided on hunting down another Wrecks and Relics item.

The Request is for the id of a Beech 90 that is located within the Wasp Paintball Park near Baldivis WA. It is a fuselage still on undercarriage minus wings. It is painted in green camo and can be seen in the centre of the Paintball park from the Car Park. The paintball park itself is only open Fri Sat and Sundays so there was no one around to ask about it’s id and no mention is made on their website. Therefore any help in an id would be appreciated.

As I had travelled about 50km South of Perth I decided to call in at Jandakot on the way back. Because of the cooler conditions it seemed a lot more hangers were open so these new ones logged 1245 – 1335
