VH-WTM  de Havilland D.H.82A Tiger Moth                  (c/n  DHA381)

                                

                                    Like many Tigers, this one has a long list of  previous identities.  Civilianized from A17-346 in July
                                    of 1947 it was first registered VH-BCV, although was withdrawn from use in October of that year.
                                    It then languished somewhere until 1955 when, after a complete overhaul, it emerged as VH-AZG
                                    the second.  (The first -AZG, also a Tiger, was written off in November 1947).  It was re-registered
                                    VH-RGK in 1960 and again in 1966 as VH-WTM for W.T. Moore of Churchill, Queensland.  The
                                    image above, by Ian Thompson (via the Geoff Goodall collection) was taken at Archerfield in Dec-
                                    ember 1966 just after its last identity had been granted.   It is still current and registered to a private
                                    owner in NSW.
