VH-AQC  de Havilland D.H.82A Tiger Moth                  (c/n  DHA22/T284)

                                

                                        Sometimes, in attempting to get a photo of every VH- aircraft registered before 12/31/70, you
                                        take what you can get.   The above is a scan of a Xeroxed snap shot done by Roger McDonald
                                        many years before the advent of the scanner!  The RQAC Tiger was apparently taking part in
                                        a rally/race at Lismore, NSW circa 1946.      From the Geoff Goodall collection below comes
                                        this very blurred although panoramic view of -AQC just over the fence at Archerfield in 1946.
                                        The Tiger was first registered in April 1946 (ex A17-25), although was quite short lived inasmuch
                                        as it was damaged (beyond repair?) at Toowoomba, Queensland on 13 October 1946, making
                                        these images rare indeed. . .
