ZK-ALY de
Havilland D.H.82A Tiger Moth
(c/n 82510)
This machine came from ex-RAF stocks, being built as
N9456. Assembled in New Zealand,
it became NZ851 with the RNZAF. In 1946,
as surplus, it was sold to the NZ Insurance
Company at Wigram on behalf of
Hawkes Bay and East Coast Aero Club to replace ZK-AJD
which had crashed in October
1946. This rough image shows it in service with that club.
ZK-ALY cashed at Napier on 28 November 1954 and was
written off.
