Tony had the episode on DVD and showed it to me, you're right they are Wirraways.

The only problem is that the aircraft has the British/Commonwealth Air Force roundel without the red centre and the aircraft in my inexperienced eye looks like a CAC Wirraway. IIRC the redless roundel was only used in the Pacific War against the Japanese.
Does anyone know the episode and the scene? Am I correct?
