From memory this plane was damaged and the wings were removed and it was then used as a tractor?
-
State Library of New South Wales said:
Yes - that is the case - although I think Bickerton still had a lot of trouble keeping it going on the few days they were able to test it.

"Stored" is an ambitious expression here! It's interesting to see mawson's dogs in this shot, too.
Great picture. -

The sheep-skins were useful.
"On March 8 the blizzard died away and a good day followed. All hands joined in building a solid stone outside of the Magnetograph House. This piece of work, in which thirty tons of rock were utilized, was completed on the following day. The wall reached almost to the roof on every side. The unprotected roof was lagged with sacks and sheep–skins and, after this had been effected, the hut became practically wind–tight. The external covering controlled the influx of cold from the penetrating winds, and, on the other hand, the conduction of the sun’s warmth in summer. Thus a steady temperature was maintained; a most desirable feature in a magnetograph house. Webb had the instruments set up in a few days, and they were working before the end of the month."
The Home of the Blizzard
by Sir Douglas Mawson (1915)

On dogs:
"Several families were born at this time, but although we did everything possible for them they all perished, except one; the offspring of Gadget. This puppy was called ‘Blizzard’. It was housed for a while in the veranda and, later on, in the Hangar. Needless to say, Blizzard was a great favourite and much in demand as a pet."
