VH-FAH (2) de havilland D.H.82A Tiger
Moth
(c/n DHA944/T179)
This photo of the second VH-FAH
was taken by Barrie Colledge at an air show at RAAF Point
Cook in December
1973. Formerly A17-521 this Tiger was civilianized for the
Royal Aero Club
of NSW as
VH-RSF and then re-registered VH-FBX when
sold off to the Illawarra Flying School
(Fawcett Aviation) in 1958. It was re-registered again by
Fawcetts in 1962 into the FA series used
by their Illawarra
Flying School branch, the original -FAH having long since been
re-registered -TSA.
It then had a number
of private owners and is still current, being registered to an owner in
Bendigo.
Greg Banfield's gorgeous color shot below was at Camden in January
1969. The logo on the fin
says 'Tiger
Club' See enlargement below.
