c/no. 145: A licence was granted to Haerens Flyvemaskinfabrik [Norwegian Army Aircraft Factory] in late 1930 to build ten DH.60Ms at Kjeller, near Lillestrom. They were known as Standard Moths, were fitted with Gipsy Is and had c/nos. in the range 137 - 146. This airframe was the ninth of the ten produced.
