Cessna 402A VH-DZY was operated by Rex Aviation on behalf of the CSIRO on cloud-seeding experiments in the Mackay area from January to February 1972. The lower image shows a duct (purpose unknown) fitted to the nose cone and a chute on the side of the fuselage for dispensing dry ice into clouds. The aircraft was piloted by Phillip Zupp who had flown Meteors with No 77 Squadron RAAF in Korea.
