Tiger Moth
| Description:
The
de Havilland Tiger Moth is one of
the best known aircraft
whatsoever. Developed in the
beginnings of the 30's as a trainer aircraft for the British Royal Air
Force, the "Moth" or "Tiggy" has lost none of its charm
thru the years. Lovingly
restored and pampered, many examples of this classic biplane are still
flying. |

The
Tiger Moth is available in many
sizes from a number of manufacturers. We
have decided to introduce, using our well-known full fiberglass technique, a
"small" model with a wing span of 36 inches.
The model comes fully painted and detailed – including the
characteristic rib stiching. Using
a geared 400 class electric motor, flight times of 8 to 10 minutes are
normal. A nice, compact model,
the fully assembled Tiger Moth will
fit in almost all car trunks – the ideal model for that "quick flight
before going home after work". |
