NB : 
"The Winjeel is a two/three-seat, low wing, fixed undercarriage tail dragger. Construction is all metal with fabric-covered control surfaces. Power is provided by a 450hp Pratt & Whitney Wasp Junior nine-cylinder radial engine driving a two-bladed Hamilton Standard variable pitch propeller.

The Winjeel was the Royal Australian Air Force's primary piston trainer from 1955 to 1975. It replaced the Tiger Moth and Wackett aircraft and was itself replaced by the NZAI CT-4 Airtrainer.

During the Vietnam war America's use of Forward Air Control (FAC) aircraft had proved to be a great asset so in 1969 four Winjeels were modified for use in this role by the addition of a smoke grenade dispenser and upgraded communications equipment. FAC Winjeels were not used in combat but were used in training. Finally, in 1994, the FAC Winjeels were replaced by Pilatus PC-9 turboprops which brought an end to the Winjeels nearly 40 years of service.

A total of 62 Winjeels were produced from 1954 to 1958 and delivered to the RAAF. Two prototype aircraft (CAC-22) were produced in 1951 and required extensive testing and modifications to arrive at the final design of the Winjeel. Original plans called for the prototypes to be fitted with Pratt & Whitney Wasps and CAC's own engine design in the production aircraft. This engine was a seven-cylinder radial called the R-795 Cicada. In 1951 the Cicada program was scrapped and Winjeels were all fitted with Pratt & Whitney Wasp Junior engines (the same engine used in de Havilland Beavers).

Interestingly, for a trainer, the Winjeels had three seats. Both the RAF and RAAF had specified three seats for their post-WWII trainers, the theory being that it would be possible to train two pilots at once, one being instructed whilst the other watched. This theory did not last long.

According to the Australian civil aircraft register there are 30 Winjeels currently registered. This version is based on VH-OPJ (serial no A85-429 ) which is operated by Classic Aero Adventure Flights in Ballina NSW. This particular aircraft has been modified to fit an additional seat to make it a four seater aircraft."
