VH-FAJ (1) mde
Havilland D.H.82A Tiger Moth
(c/n 327)
This ex-Illawarra Tiger (ex VH-AUH) was purchased by
Superspread Pty Ltd in 1952 and
converted into a crop
duster. It was operated by them until around 1957 and was never
re-
gistered into the
VH-SS series for some reason. It was
sold to Southern Aerial Super
Service of Campania,
Tasmania and is seen in the nice shot below by Jeff Atkinson (via the
Nigel Daw collection) at Cambridge Airport, Hobart in
early 1958. VH-FAJ was written
off in a crash at
Colebrook,
Tasmania, in March 1958.
