Despite being registered at the time of the photo, VH-UNI was stored with flat tyres and its prop missing alongside parts of the engine. Wynwood is a large farm in western New South Wales. The aircraft was later acquired by The Katherine Museum in Northern Territory and restored to static display condition. It had been used by pioneering Katherine-based flying doctor Clyde Fenton in the 1930s Mike Madden photo

VH-UJN was brought to the Northern Territory by Arnhem Land Gold Development Co before being loaned to pioneering local flying doctor Clyde Fenton. After an accident in January 1936, it was taken to Sydney for rebuilding and remained based there until impressed by the RAAF in 1940. Photo from: State Library of New South Wales

VH-UMR was part of the first Central Australian Gold Expedition in search of Lasseter's Reef, which was a rich vein of gold that Harold Lasseter claimed to have found in the desert. No gold was found and Lasseter would perish alone in the desert after the rest of the expedition quit the search. The photo of VH-UMR may be at Alice Springs Townsite aerodrome or at Ilbpilla Soak, the advanced search base, where it crashed on August 9, 1930. Repaired, UMR was sold in New Zealand in 1934 as ZK-ADF. Photo from: State Library of New South Wales

The library says this photo is at Bathurst, NSW. But Bathurst did not have an aerodrome until 1938 while the photo is 1930. Tail number means an aerial derby but there are no reports of one of these well-publicised events at Bathurst. It got down to two events - the 1930 aero club aerial derby at Hargrave Air Park in September 1930 or an air pageant at Mascot (now Sydney) airport in November 1930. Study of the background and other photos of the event and from that era, this is Mascot airport. Photo from: State Library of New South Wales

You don't see this every day...G-AUAE is 100 years old in 2025. It was the first D.H.60 Moth to be exported from the UK, and the first of many to be imported into Australia. Re-registered VH-UAE in 1929, this un-airworthy fuselage was left over from a 1980s rebuild and is preserved as a non-flying relic. In the background is the 'new' VH-UAE, rebuilt from the airworthy parts and carrying on this identity as the longest-registered, still flying aircraft in Australia. See my detailed histories on other images of each aircraft.
