Ep.18: VH-XXS (Xtra Xtra Small), “The Beast”


Listen Later

Sue Schott, widow of pilot, aircraft builder and QAM donor, the late Graham Schott, speaks with Garry Hills about Graham’s passion for flying, which culminated in a 6 year project to build his own aeroplane - the Rand Robinson KR2, VH-XXS (Xtra Xtra Small), “The Beast” - which he and Sue flew extensively for many years, and which Graham donated to QAM just prior to his untimely death in 2013.


XXS - which Graham successfully landed on the Gatton bypass following an in-flight mechanical emergency - is currently on display in Hangar 2.
