I get why old Tiger Moths need to do wheeler landings to keep them safe and in one piece, however when I learnt to fly DH 82s in 1957 in Melbourne Australia, we all did 3 point landings except on windy days.

White scarf a bit corny

Are, the first aircraft I ever flew & instructed on them before I went on to DC3's. BTW We never had a tow bar so you lifted the tailplane strut & they balanced & you simply pushed them out of the hanger.

Top aircraft. I owned one. But 1) brave pilot who swings prop WITHOUT chocks (particularly with a pax onboard) and 2) Brave pilot who allows front seat pax a long scarf that can (and has) switched OFF the rear magneto switches. Safe flying.

Well it was nice but I did expect a full view of the start-up.

I am sure there are some Motheneers our there ... who never come down .. and get refueled from a ballon . Beautiful :)

A DREAM! 👍

"...laughter-silvered wings."

The DH82A Tiger Moth is a very workable aircraft. In to-days world the average pilot attraced to this really needs, even if he has a PPL licence or a CPL to get some very serious training from not the latest new age instructor, But a veteran who knows what Tiger Moths don't do. I operated one for many years as a (working aircraft) and providing you get the right training they are a very practiable aircraft. HOWEVER, if you didn't do spinning in your licence training, you really will have to get training on spinning to make sure your safe. A C150 Cessna is a very practicle spinning aircraft. It's spin is very similar to the DH82A.The DH82A lacks brakes and to fit them cost thousands because the landing gear needs moving forward 150 m.m. If your lucky enough to have Auster training and can fly one, then its easy. The DH82 TIger is a harder aircraft to fly then an Auster. Both aircraft will really bit you if you don't watch what your doing. iN short the basic start is you have to fly a Tiger with the ball in the center ALL THE TIME. Its a very good spinning aircraft but if you have slots, and I wouldnt operate a TIger with out full controlled slots.

I love those tiger moths

Brill.!!

Where did this kid get money for a classic plane?. Must be inheritance

The scarf is the icing on the cake.

I wish I could go back to 1942 and watch all the Tiger Moths and Stearmans flying out of #32 EFTS Bowden here in Alberta. Lots of stories of those days from the older folks .

He inspected that motor about as well as I check my junk mail

Wow

Beautifully done. Love the choice of music. Love the Tiger Moth.

3:24 omg I was JUST gonna comment “out of Africa music starts playing” AND OMG IT DID I love you

The Tiger Moth needs controllable slots on the top wing to get the best out of it. Wheel on landings are for girls.Internal ASI essentional. The Tiger is proned to flat spinning with two POB and make sure the boot is empty Good for 15kts cross wind if you know how to fly the dreaded DH82A. retired crop duster.

Amazing 😍

I love those orange trousers! I had a flight in one of these Tiger Moths in April as can be seen on my KZbin channel. We did two loops and one stall turn. it was an amazing experience. I have since done an aerobatic wing walk again with loops and stall turns atop a 1940's Boeing Stearman!

Fakepilot...at the end he is in the Front Passenger-seat...

Why no registration ???

Wow! This is a beauty

Great video...Nicely edited...(Perhaps you can edit out the wind noise!)...PW

I did my initial flying training on Tiger Moths back in 1958 at Biggin Hill. Beautiful summer that year. Flying over the south counties was a real joy, Now hoping to go full circle in October having hired a Moth for some more dual.

Wow I love a tiger moth 👌

Жизнь..

I begun flying thanks to that scene in Out of Africa!

FAB

JUSTGEORGEOUSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.......WHY DO WE LOVE TIGERS SO MUCH.

Hi Jaime! What a wonderful garden and house you have in Valle de Bravo. A little slice of paradise. I have lost your email. Please get my email from Pancho, so I can send you the link to my pictures from our trip to your great and fantastic country. Greetings from 0 degree Copenhagen.

Un avión maravilloso, recuerdo los modelos que mi Padre construyó en su vida, siempre admira este avión. Ojalá tenga la oportunidad de conocerlo y verlo volar.
