The Duigan Centenary of Flight - 2010
The first Australian made aeroplane to fly; the Duigan Aeroplane, was designed and constructed by John Robertson Duigan with the assistance of his younger brother, Reginald Charles Duigan. After many trials, the first flight was achieved by John on 16th July, 1910 on their parents property Spring Plains, in central Victoria, Australia. To celebrate this historic event, a replica is being constructed to be on view for Centenary celebrations in Mia Mia between the 16th and 18th July 2010 and at the Avalon Airshow in 2011.
Donations are necessary to complete the construction of this replica.
