Photo Comment

This is the second Tiger Moth to carry the reg VH-APB. Built for the RAAF as A17-116, post-war is became VH-ATQ in 1957. Later converted to one of the extensive fleet of Super Spread crop sprayers (just imagine that!) as VH-SSB. Registered VH-APB on 21 July 1989. Seen here at the start of the Federation Airshows in the Outback, where for two weeks they did a roaring trade in joyrides.
