This Moth Minor was one of nine Coupé models built in 1939, and registered G-AFOR. It was sold to Australia and registered VH-AGL in August 1939, later it was taken on strength of the RAAF, s/n A21-14. It was restored on the civil register in 1946 on April 15, 1946, crashed on June 1, 1957 at Mayfield, New South Wales and was de-registered on September 17, 1958. Somewhere along the way it lost the Coupé top. After being rebuilt it reappeared on the register as VH-AGL on March 17, 1981, and was re-registered as VH-AGO on May 10, 1984. Now it is located at the Caboolture Warplane Museum. |
