                                       This interesting shot shows a pre-WW II Tiger over Sydney (looking towards Woolloomooloo) circa
                                       the mid to late 1940s.   It was operated, at the time, by Airflite (Training) Ltd of Mascot.  The image
                                       immediately below, courtesy of the John Oxley Library, State Library of Queensland collection shows
                                       it at about the same time (circa 1940).  -UVZ was first imported in August of 1936 for Airflite, Ltd.
                                       It was impressed during the war as A17-691.  After its registration lapsed in 1946, it was restored to
                                       the register as VH-BBP.     It has now reverted to its original registration.   Phil Vabre provides a
                                       nice contemporary shot of it (bottom of page) taken at the AAAA Fly-In, Narrandera, 2006.
