Severely damaged in a forced landing on Avoca Beach, New South Wales, on December 7, 1937. Placed in storage while repairs were assessed. In September 1939 - almost two years later - it was decided A1-10 could not be repaired. Became an instructional airframe at RAAF Richmond but soon after was scrapped.

Delivered to Qantas in 1930 and used for outback air services and charter. Grounded in September 1932 over concerns at the integrity of Puss Moth wings but back in the air in March 1933 with more frequent inspections (in 1942 Australia mandated a third wing strut following a further wing failure). VH-UPQ sold to McDonald Air Service in September 1933. Crashed into the sea near Cairns, Queensland, on January 19, 1937, after the pilot fell asleep. One passenger, a child, drowned but the pilot and a second passenger rescued. Photo from: State Library of Queensland

Delivered to Dutch East Indies air force in 1941. Escaped to Australia in 1942 and impressed by USAAF. Operated by Guinea Airways for the Allied military. After war sold to APL and registered in May 1946. Used on airline services but by August 1946 it was destined for New Zealand, where it became ZK-ALZ in November. Damaged by fire in February 1947 when petrol used as a cleaning fluid ignited. Under overhaul at the time and subsequently written off. Photo from: State Library of Queensland

G-ABTL arriving at Brisbane. It was surveying an air mail route from the UK to Australia to be jointly operated by Imperial and Qantas Empire Airways. QEA believed the Atalanta too big for the section from Singapore to Australia and successfully argued for the DH.86 Express to be used instead. Astraea went on to be impressed into the RAF as DG450 for service in India. Photo from: Hudson Fysh Collection/State Library of New South Wales

VH-URL was involved in a fatal accident accident on December 5, 1935 when it crashed into a tent while attempting a forced landing at Crescent Head, NSW. A woman in the tent was killed and -URL wrecked. The aircraft was rebuilt. Impressed into the RAAF in 1940 as A7-82 and scrapped in 1944. The DH.60G III was powered by an inverted Gipsy III engine which made it look at first glance like a DH.82 Tiger Moth. However, it retained the straight upper wing of earlier DH.60s.

Built by Geoff Wickner. Had to use an 80hp Anzani when he could not obtain the intended 40hp engine leading to official concern the airframe was overstressed. First flight January 25, 1931. Wickner forced to sell the aircraft which then had its CoA withdrawn in 1932. The Wicko was followed by the Lion and then the Wizard. Wickner moved to the UK where he designed and built 13 Foster-Wickner Wicko monoplanes - same name, different design. A replica of the original Wicko is displayed at Queensland Air Museum.

KNILM's shiny new PK-AFM on a regular service from Batavia (Jakarta) to Sydney. It was one of the KNILM aircraft to escape to Australia following the Japanese invasion of the Dutch East Indies (Indonesia) in 1942. -AFM crashed near Katherine, Northern Territory, on March 26, 1942 when the pilots became disorientated on a flight from Brisbane to Batchelor. Crew and passengers survived but not the greyhounds being carried as cargo. They became dinner during the four-day wait for rescue. Photo from: State Library of Queensland
