VH-AAM  D.H.94 Moth Minor    (c/n 94002)


                              


                                  It's c/n would indicate that this was the second Moth Minor built.   It was certainly the first VH-AAM,
                                  being registered in 1939.   "Aspaxadrene" was the forerunner of the modern day Ventolin, a must for
                                  asthma sufferers, so I assume that this aircraft was owned by a drug company (or distributor) at the
                                  time.  However, it's hardly what one would call an "executive" transport.  Some 74 of these "monoplane
                                  Tiger Moths" had been built at Hatfield when WW II broke out, and all the jigs, dies and tooling
                                  were bundled off to Sydney where production was resumed, some 41 more of them being built by
                                  DHA  for the RAAF.   For some reason VH-AAM appears never to have been impressed into RAAF
                                  service.  Its fuselage, at least, was still in existence into the new millennium.
