VH-BVB (3) de Havilland D.H.82A Tiger Moth
(c/n 85829)
Theoretically, since this machine was
first registered in Australia in 1980 it falls outside the normal
time frame for inclusion
in my selections. However, since I have it as ZK-BBG, its previous identity,
I'll make an
exception! Geoff Goodall's photo above was at Tyabb in
December of 1989, whilst
Phil Vabre's shot (below) was some two decades later in November 2008
and shows the aircraft
still looking
pristine in an almost early D.H. livery. -BVB was imported
from NZ by Ken Orrman
as a crash rebuild
project and sold to Ms. Judy Pay
who has owned it since November 1980
