In Vol 1 which primarily deals with early wartime and training aircraft it lists on page 16 the interim and permanent finishing schemes for each type, based on Instructions issued on. The primary reference in this topic would surely be Geoff Pentland's seminal work RAAF Camouflage and Markings Vol 1 & 2. Unless a photo of A17-695 is contained in either I am not sure either provides much information other than a collage of photos.
The Stewart Wilson's book is similarly an overview of production and service in the RAAF covered in 50 pages and doesnt get into colour schemes specifically other than providing many photo examples to consider.

I have both of those books Julians book is brilliant - nearly 400 pages on the type in Australia, but is more an historical record of the history of each airframe and details of the batch productions or imports, but it doesnt get into colour schemes.Ĭ/n 827, built to UK order alloted RAF serial DX784 but not consigned due to Japanese entry into war, released to RAAF, brought on charge 24/11/43 as A17-695 issued to DHA Mascot for modifications, Either drop me a PM through the forum, or contact me through the 'Contact' link on my 'Details' page.Ĭan you give us a bit more info on your Tiger's history with you? I'd also like to know where in Canada you are. No guarantees, but if time allows, and I've got good guidance, I may have a chance to do a bit of looking in the archives at both museums. I'm not going to be at the RAAFM until November now, but will be at the AWM in Canberra between then and now. close machines) is less relevant than when and where your machine was used, regarding the colours it would have had. (Note that the colours in these images are the previous owner's scheme, and I don't believe that's particularly authentic.)Īs Batman's helpful post shows, the serial sequence (i.e. (The Museum also has a Tiger, static, in the overall Yellow scheme). In my opinion, and not an official view, I understand it is a best interpretation of what this aircraft would probably have worn, but AFAIK, there were no photos showing this machine in that scheme. The RAAF Museum's second (and airworthy) Tiger is in a scheme that was researched by Museum staff. 'when in use') variations on the 'disruptive camouflage' schemes, as well as the not so far mentioned Foliage Green overall upper surfaces as used on Tigers often in forward / combat and non-basic training roles. The 'Yellow' scheme is well documented, and there are a number of local and period (i.e. I have a copy of the former, but not the latter, although the RAAFM has both, or course.
Stewart Wilson's Tiger Moth, CT-4, Wackett & Winjeel, which I think the RAAF Museum still has stock of, and The DH 82A Tiger Moth in Australia by Julian Forsyth. There are two books I'd suggest are essential. Have you actually contacted any museums as yet? The RAAF Museum has an extensive archive, but not online.

The Australian War Memorial (AWM) has a good photo archive online (not without error of course). Glad to hear you have a 'proper' Tiger in Canada! :) Aircraft purchased and under restoration in Canada by S-.ġ944 - late WWII overall training yellow, blue/white Pacific roundels, at 1 EFTS.ġ951-56 - postwar training overall silver, yellow trainer bands, red/white/blue 1:2:3 roundels. Sold 1957, became VH-BVU until cancelled 1970, when sold to USA as N350JT (Art Scholl Aviation, California).
Next, basic training with 1 ITS (Initial Training School, which became 1 Initial Flying Training School - 1 IFTS) at Archerfield (Brisbane) 1951-54.įinally, to 1 BFTS (No.1 Basic Flying Training School) at Uranquinty 1955-1956. Service history was primarily training.įirstly at 1 EFTS Parafield (ie No.1 Elementary Flying Training School at Parafield, Adelaide) during 1944, and then to storage from end 1944 until 1951. Had -692 (a Navy aircraft) and 697 (painted as a Navy aircraft).Īs you say, built for a UK order as DX784 for SA or Rhodesia, but delivered to RAAF. Hi, checked my Tiger pics and alas no A17-695 (c/n 827).
