Photograph taken at Parafield and scanned from a Kodak slide.

VH-TMK was lost on February 28, 1998 when its wing failed near Wellard, Western Australia, during aerobatics.The pedigree of -TMK is a mystery. Msn T250 was allocated to a rebuild of msn 83250. However 83250 is VH-CXV. A possibility is the plate stamped T250 was among the components used in building -TMK (it was first registered in August 1980) while VH-CXV still has the original British DH plate with the serial 83250.

VH-TMK was assembled from sundry components at Maitland, New South Wales and registered in August 1980. The msn was given as T250. T series numbers were allocated to airframes rebuilt by de Havilland Australia in World War II. However T250 was a rebuild of msn 83250 (VH-CXV). A possibility is the plate stamped T250 was among the components used in the rebuild of -TMK while VH-CXV still has the original plate with the serial 83250. This is the serial used in the register. VH-TMK's wing failed near Wellard Western Australia, on February 28, 1998.
