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.

BS452 served with 306 and 65 squadrons and was with a training unit when World EWar II ended. It was sold to Vickers Armstrong in December 1949 and that is where the story ends. Spare parts? Photo from: Imperial War Museums

Now displayed as PH-AFK at the Nederlands Transport Museum. Photo from: National Library of Australia
