sadly the illustrator isn't credited in this or even the author. It's the Longacre book of Aircraft . The sort of book I loved as a kid ,the skycrane chopper is a particular favourite

Our 20+ yr old copy of Tim Winton’s The Deep is dog eared but Karen Louise’s illustrations telling the story of a child overcoming fear to find joy & fun with her family swimming in the ocean bring me wonderful memories.
