This aircraft was delivered to Qantas as VH-EAG City of Hobart. It was sold to the RAAF in 1979 and scrapped at RAAF Richmond in 2009. The cockpit and forward fuselage was salvaged and is on external display at HARS, Albion Park. Since I last photographed it three years ago, the nose gear has been lowered and the rear of the fuselage section is elevated on a stand.

This Moth Minor is actually a pre-war civil import. It was allocated the UK rego G-AFNN to the Hull Aero Club in 1939 but appears to have been deregistered the same day. It was registered VH-ACR on 17 Jan 1940 until impressed as the last of the RAAF's Moth Minors A21-42 in Nov 1941. Returned after the war to VH-ACR in 1945 until withdrawn in 1947. Restored at Caboolture during 2003-2008.
