A few pictures....

Here's Barney's plane, as originally found (apparently with some connection to farm equipment)...

....and a couple of shots of Barney and his plane, taken at the Lowbanks bridge over the Maitland River.

Judging by the photos, both b&w and colour, this was a planned event (it's doubtful that a Brownie would have been able to freeze the rotation of the prop) with professional photographers behind the cameras.

The only other known photos of Barney are "mug shots", and a few  clandestine photos not suitable for this venue.  I believe there were, at one time, "Customer of the Year" photos in several local beer and liquor outlets, too.
