DH-60 Moths in Hong Kong aviation

Hello !

I am looking for any info and pictures about De Havilland DH-60 Moth, which were used by Hong Kong’s military and/or civil aviations.
The worldairforces.com site stated, that there were used two DH-60 Moths in Hong Kong in 1941.
Who can help ?

Regards,
Flyer.

Moths in Hong Kong

in the book A History of Chinese Aviation by Lennart Andersson are some photos of Moths in China and reference to VR-HCU

The only mention of Hong Kong in the McKay book is in relation to the exploits of one Dr Fenton (passing through). There are no photos of the Moths in question.

I have been doing a lot of research into DH 60 Moths recently and I have not as yet come across anything in reference Hong Kong operations.

I’m sure that there are references and maybe even photos, in Stuart McKay’s excellent book on the DH60 Moth, although I haven’t got a copy to hand.

It may also be worth contacting Stuart at the de Havilland Moth Club. [email]dhmoth@dhmothclub.co.uk[/email]
