The Duke of Edinburgh walks away from Beagle 206 VH-UNL to attend his
official welcome to Norfolk Island in May 1968. Prince Philip had arrived
on an HS-748 from Auckland en route to a polo game in western NSW. Having
flown the Beagle 206 in the UK, Prince Philip expressed great interest
in VH-UNL and spent ten minutes on the aeroplane talking with the crew.
VH-UNL, which can be seen in the right background, was returning from
a sales tour of New Zealand. QUEENSLAND
