VH-AZF de
Havilland D.H.82A Tiger Moth (c/n
392/T273)
Another R.Q.A.C. Tiger (and one that I have
flown) at Archerfield in 1951. This was
Australian-built
as A17-357 and is still on
the register,
although
has migrated over the years, first to NSW and is now
resident in
Victoria. Geoff Goodall caught it one day in July of 1967
in a rural
setting at Glenn Innes,
NSW (immediately below)
after it had
left the RQAC. The next shot is by Greg Banfield and was taken
at West Maitland, NSW in November 1971.
(Helen Blazes - Coffs Harbour) At the foot of the page
is a nice
fairly recent image of it taken by Phil Vabre at the
AAAA Fly-In at Swan Hill in April of 2005.
It won the Best Biplane
Award. A German website
has an excellent recent flying shot of VH-AZF at
