This colourful Tiger is ex A17-94, registered VH-ARW post-war. Unfortunately it crashed at Cairns on 26 October 1958 and the wreckage was placed in storage at Tully until the early 1970s. Recovered and restored in Brisbane, it was completed in 1990 and registered as VH-UVB on 21 June that year. It was operated by the late Barry Hempel at Archerfield for a time in the '90s and is currently occupied on joyride work at Tooradin.
