I just found an interesting article relating the discovery of an unusual piece of aviation heritage -- parts of the first aircraft out of the Vickers facory (1911) and the first plane used in Antartica (though, not the first to fly there)...

Mawson seems to have been quite a character!

Thanks for the link.
