I would still replace the wooden wing spar with a metal one.

The Frog 1/72 was a great model: it looks like this réplica! (Frog was a great manufacturer with greats models)

I am happy to see the Southern Cross fly again! Even if it’s a replica. My great grandfather was one of the people who helped finance those first few trips across the pond. His name was William James Upton. Funny enough, my grandmother married a man who flew with Rollo Kingsford Smith in the 463rd bomber squadron, Mac McLeod. Cheers!

I owned a Tiger late 70’s. Had to Chas get oil in rocker covers every 25 hours! Love that airplane. Awesome takeoff with the slats on top wings.

Do you have a tail wheel on this aircraft ? I notice an abundance of sealed tarmac🤔
@markfromharsaviationmuseum43 жыл бұрын
Yes, we do have a tail wheel rather than a skid. We also have brakes. It's a bit difficult to find open grass fields to land on around here so our operations are restricted to times when the weather suits our sealed runways.

@@markfromharsaviationmuseum4 Hi Mark, I flew ab initio in DHC 1 Chippies in the early 60,s and the Tiger Moths were just out of my reach timewise. I I had them in my bucket list for 50 years and was only able to have a flight or two . They certainly reminded me of how much I missed by not having much time in them. There is something in todays training aircraft that deprive trainees of the joy of stick and rudder and the blast of air smacking the back of their heads. Wouldn’t it be great if somebody did a Waco job and built them from new again? Your Tiger looks great. Cheers from Downunder 🇦🇺🇨🇦👍😷😷

GREAT STUFF - and good, simple solid video editing work. This will one day prove to be a historic piece of fooage, not only for the aircraft but the coastline up to and including Sydney as of Dec 2020 ..... and all on a crystal clear day. I will forward to aviation buffs around the world. Brilliant. I should add - my last flights in a DC3 were in PNG, and at a time when the airstrip IN Lae was in operation as distinct from running the raskol gauntlet and potholes out to Nadzab.

@@petercunningham2339 thanks for your kind comment! The DC-3, or C-47 in this case, is an amazing aeroplane and it is such a privilege to part of the crew that operates it. Many of our crew members operated them in PNG and I love hearing their stories. If you're in the Sydney area, you might just see us do it again this Friday (around lunch time) - Victor One to Long Reef and then into the Harbour and out through the Heads.

Thanks for your comment Les! The DC-3 / C-47 is an amazing aeroplane. We now have five of them in our collection and it is our goal to eventually have all five in the air at once. I can't imagine what ten Pratt and Whitney R-1830s would sound like!
