Aircraft on the airfield at RNZAF Station Hobsonville.
L-R: DH60g 870, Fairey 3b S1805, Blackburn Baffin S1554, Gloster Grebe NZ502.
"This was just after the last two Grebes (NZ501 & NZ502) had been withdrawn from use at Wigram and were transferred to Hobsonville for instructional purposes. The Dh60g Moth at left was Hobsonville's "hack" aircraft until withdrawn from use in early 1939." Note from the back of one print (presumably D.J. Duxbury's comments.)
