VH-UVB  de Havilland D.H.82A Tiger Moth                  (c/n   DHA91)

                               

                                   As VH-ARW this aircraft had crashed at Cairns in October 1957 and then languished for thirty-odd
                                   years, before finally re-emerging in 1990 as VH-UVB.   Phil Vabre's contemporay shot of it (above)
                                   was taken at Tooradin, Victoria in August 2008.   Barry Hempel owned it at Archerfield in the 1990s
                                   as seen in the two lower images from the Grame Higgs collection.   The Australian civil register lists
                                   this Tiger as c/n 1136 although just where that came from I am not sure.  This Tiger was formerly
                                   A17-94 in the RAAF.
