VH-UOA de
Havilland D.H.60M Moth
(c/n 1370)
This Metal Moth had just been purchased by the Zinc
Corporation Inc Aero Club at Broken Hill,
NSW when this
photo, from the Geoff Goodall collection, was taken in 1937. It
was originally an
Australian Aero Club
(Victorian Section) machine, but was sold to a private owner in 1932.
It was
written off at
Broken Hill on 19 August 1938 when it struck the ground during an
aerobatics display.
Parts of it were used in the
construction of D.H.60G Gipsy Moth VH-AAL (c/n DHA 7).
