Today, as a christmas present, I got to fly in a 1940's DH.82A Tiger Moth. This is REAL flying, constantly keeping an eye on the slip ball, rudders forever in use even for S&L. Got to do a little bit of aerobatics and then some circuits, the most fun 0.7hrs in the entire logbook. Low 'n' slow, gotta love it. 8-)

Here are a few pics, I'm in the front seat and just did a touch and go on runway 10 at Camden (YSCN). Enjoy...
















The Tiger


Thanks for looking.

You're one lucky person!!

Very nice shots of a very nice plane.

Real flying in a real aeroplane. Excellent. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Sweet... what a great Xmas present.  8-)

Better be careful, or you won't want to fly anything else...  ;D

Thanks guys, it was such an enjoyable experience. I recommend it to anyone with the chance to fly in a Tiger Moth.

You are a very lucky person!! That is one fine looking plane!

.....Now we need the photo of you posing proudly in front of the aircraft, donned in Leather Jacket, Flying Helmet, Goggles, silk Scarf and white Gloves, a slightly oily face, one hand grasping the prop...

...and a massive grin, extending from ear to ear....

....to complete the picture.... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]..!

That's one gorgeous plane! Must have been an awesome ride and a privilege to cross the blue skie in such a stunning classic. Thanks for sharing these.
