VH-SSD (1) de Havilland D.H.82A Tiger
Moth
(c/n 83280)
VH-SSD was the former VH-ALX
and was one of those Hatfield-built Tigers which served
with the RAAF under their RAF serial, this one being T5561. First
civilianized in 1952 it was
acquired by Super Spread in August 1953 and reregistered
-SSD. My shot shows it at
Moorabbin in 1954.
It was damaged in a crash in 1956 and withdrawn from the register
in 1961 when, presumably, it was decided not
to restore it.
