VH-HET was registered in December 1985 after being restored by Col Pay, of Scone. It is now a flying exhibit at the Temora Aviation Museum. The Spitfire arrived in Australia too late for war service. It was passed to a technical school as an instructional airframe and then acquired by Sid Marshall. With warbirds effectively barred by authorities, Marshall retained it as an exhibit at his museum at Bankstown. Pay bought it in 1982 after restrictions on warbirds were lifted.

Yes, a Tiger Moth at Sydney airport in the 1980s. For a short time Tiger Moth joy flights were offered from the airport because of its proximity to Sydney Harbour, the Opera House and beaches. VH-EOV became VH-HSH when it returned from a nine-year rebuild in 1989. In RAAF service, -EOV was A17-667, but it was not painted on the aircraft in 1976 However it explains "7" on the cowling.

In January 1981 N68756 was painted in the RAAF markings seen here and, sponsored by Newcastle TV station NBN and the RSL Building Society, was brought to Australia for a tour coinciding with the RAAF's 60th anniversary. The aircraft returned to the US a few months later and was withdrawn from use in 1986. It became derelict at various locations in Texas, before being used as a spares source by HARS circa 2008 and the Pima Air Museum, AZ in 2009. In September 2017 it was sold to MotoArt Studios and broken up, to be converted into luxury furniture.

An ex Adastra aerial survey aircraft. In 1976 it was painted as A16-123 although in RAAF service it had been A16-105. A plan to change the registration to VH-FXF, to match the codes, never happened. After the picture was taken, it flew only a handful of times, mainly ferry flights from museum to museum. The last flight was in 1985 to Wangaratta. In 2001 the Australian War Memorial bought the aircraft and restored it for static display as A16-105.
