Seeing as we sent three to your rally any chance that you’d send some for one of ours? 😉 😀 😉

Visiting NZ for the Vintage Air Tour/Rally held in Feb this year. Shot taken on a rare rain-free day!! 😮

2 Tigers and a Leopard containered over for the Rally. [Ron would kill me if he knew I hadn’t corrected this after all the trouble they went to!! 😮 ]

G’day 😉

Great stuff, but what’s G-AGEG doing in NZ?? That’s Torquil Norman’s machine that I’ve flown in?

Australia has 212 DH-82/DH-82A on the register alone, without counting other dH types.

G’day 😉

There are around 178 original Tiger moths and a few replica’s registred on the UK register. Some of them are not airworthy. I think it will be hard to get a number worldwide. Let’s just say a lot of them have survived! 😉

Is there a secret DH factory in NZ? They all look new build. 🙂
Excellent photos.

The Croydon Aircraft Company, Stag Lane, Mandeville Aerodrome, New Zealand is no secret 🙂

They have restored many, many de Havillands, and a few other things.
