ZK-AAT  de Havilland D.H.60G Moth                (c/n   1132)

                              

                                     A rather ignomious beginning to my collection of New Zealand registered aircraft.  This Moth
                                     was exported in 1929.  It was written off when it spun in at Mangere on 12 March 1938.  Now,
                                     clearly the damage to the accident above was not that severe.  In fact this looks like it was either
                                     blown over by the the wind, or upended when the undercarriage hit a furrow.   (Note very little
                                     damage to the fin and rudder).   Date and venue of this image unknown.
