VH-BCI  (2)   de Havilland D.H.82A Tiger Moth         (c/n  LES 11)

                                

                                        The late Barry Hempel owned this immaculate Tiger when Phil Vabre shot this photo in his
                                        hangar at Archerfield in June 2006.  It was the second Tiger to bear this rego and was the
                                        last one produced by Lawrence Engineering and Sales of Camden, NSW from a cache of
                                        parts it had acquired in the 1960s.     The aircraft is no longer on the current register (Nov
                                        2008) probably as a result of Barry's accident.  Hempel was unfortunately killed in August
                                        2008 when the Yak 52 he was flying (with one passenger) crashed off the Queensland coast
                                        while performing aerobatics.
