Notes:
This aircraft was built in Australia in 1939 for the RAAF and served with 22 Squadron and No’s 2 and 5 Elementary Flying Training Schools where it survived a few mishaps. After the war it was sold to the Royal Aero Club of South Australia for 100 pounds. Stan (Bones) Phillips bought and restored the aircraft in 1981 and flew it around Darwin for many years. In 1998 the aircraft, which is still in airworthy condition, was purchased by the Aviation Historical Society, through a Grant provided by the Northern Territory Government, for display at the Aviation Heritage Centre. It is the oldest surviving RAAF Tigermoth in the world.
