VH-TIG  de Havilland D.H.82A Tiger Moth               (c/n   DHA466)                                          

                                        

                                               
This was the former VH-AMH and was one of the Australian-built Tigers for an order from
                                                the Dutch East Indies and was destined to have become PK-VVT.         In the event it was
                                                impressed into RAAF service as A17-624 following the Japanese invasion of the Dutch territory.
                                                It was withdrawn from service in 1965 and restored as VH-TIG.   The above shot, from the
                                                CAHS archives was taken at Berwick, Victoria in 1972, when its crop dusting days were over
                                                and it had been converted back to a standard 2 seater.  I believe it is now dismantled and may
                                                 be in a hangar at Goulburn, NSW.
