The first Australian built DH84. Became VH-ASK after World War II ended. At the time of upload, this aircraft was on display at the Museum of Flight, East Fortune, Scotland in its final Australian registration VH-SNB. A quirk in Australian DH84 production is that A34-12 c/n 2001 was built after A34-13. Originally, A34-12 had been set aside for an impressed aircraft. When this did not eventuate, a later production aircraft filled the gap. Photo preserved by John Hopton as part of his collection.
