VH-CJW de Havilland D.H.82A Tiger
Moth (c/n 812)
I
think this Tiger was probably undergoing conversion to crop duster
status when this shot was
taken at Moorabbin in 1958.
It was already a single seater, although the spray bars have not
yet been fitted. Formerly
A17-662 with the RAF, it was civilianized as VH-VJW, then -CJW
in 1947. It is still
current, and when David Tanner photographed it at Berwick in the 1970s
it
had been restored as a
two-seater. Barry Maclean's shot (foot of the page) was at
Kyneton early
in the new millennium. .
