EDITORS COMMENTS
During World War Two, the Australian aircraft manufacturing industry played a crucial role in supporting the Allied forces. The Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation (CAC), located in Victoria, Australia, was instrumental in producing the Wirraway trainer aircraft for the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) and the Royal Air Force (RAF). In this photograph, an Australian worker is intently focused on fitting flaps to an aircraft wing at the CAC factory. The image encapsulates the immense effort and dedication that went into manufacturing these vital aircraft during wartime. The first 100 Wirraway machines took 16 months to produce, but the second 100 were built in just 3 1/2 months, showcasing the industry's remarkable progress and efficiency. The Wirraway aircraft, with its distinctive livery, was a vital component of the Australian and Allied forces during World War Two. Its versatility made it suitable for various roles, including training, ground attack, and reconnaissance. The aircraft's wings, which the worker is working on in this photograph, were a critical part of its design, enabling it to perform effectively in various conditions. The Australian aircraft manufacturing industry's historical significance during this period cannot be overstated. Thousands of Australian workers, including this one, contributed to the production of these essential aircraft, ensuring the success of the Allied forces in the war effort. The image of the worker in overalls, meticulously fitting flaps to the wing, serves as a poignant reminder of the dedication and hard work that went into manufacturing these aircraft during World War Two.
