VH-BAE (1)  de Havilland D.H.82A Tiger Moth                  (c/n  DHA309)

                              

                                   I suspect that this was a "staged" event, rather than a near collision with a Tiger and a 1947 locally
                                   (Australian) produced Chevvy.    In the event. it does look as though the pilot cut it a little fine!
                                  VH-BAE was civilianized in November 1946 being ex A17-290.  It was re-registered VH-BBU
                                  (the second) in December of 1959, and then again in 1961 as VH-KGS.  (The VH-BBU I list in
                                  this collection is the first, and not the same Tiger as the above machine).      This image is via the
                                  John Oxley Library, State Library of  Queensland  collection.
