The Mackay Tiger Moth Museum
Support was gathered from the Mackay community to purchase the Tiger Moth and the Trust (now the Museum) was formed to administer the operation.
The original Tiger Moth VH-AYW was purchased by a group of volunteers from The Mackay Aero Club, who raised money with a raffle of a motor vehicle offered by North Jacklin at a greatly discounted price.
The sub committee registered the name of ‘The Tiger Moth Trust’ that later became the Mackay Tiger Moth Museum.
The founding committee members were: President Arthur Hayes, Treasurer Barry Dean, Secretary Geoff Hunt, Publicity Officer David Street and Chief Pilot Neil Christensen.
The two Tiger Moth aircraft are owned by the Mackay community with one being christened the “City of Mackay” to confirm its ownership.
The trust became an incorporated museum with tax deductible status and is run totally by voluntary labour for administration, crewing, and pilots. No one receives any remuneration for their efforts.
