Local Melton resident David Axon has been successful in his efforts to have the Houdini scale model bi-plane returned to Melton City. The model which was built by local Melton resident Ian Satur for the 2010 Houdini First Flight celebrations was donated to the National Aviation Museum of Australia last year.
According to Ian, the plane is “severely damaged” and will take sometime to repair.
David Axon is hoping that once repaired the plane can be put on permanent display at the Melton Library and Learning Hub.
