de Havilland D.H.94 Moth Minor

Remarks by Ed Coates: "This Moth Minor was a common sight at Moorabbin, Melbourne's light plane airport. Its heritage is a little obscure. My notes indicate that it was destined to become G-AFOS on the UK Civil register, but this registration was never taken up and the aircraft was shipped, instead, directly to the RAAF with s/n A21-10.

However, the ADF Serials website claims it is c/n 94094. Whichever it is, it was one of the first RAAF aircraft to be civilianized after the war, being recorded on the Australian Civil Register in August of 1945. It was reregistered VH-KHJ in 1965."
