I'm in love with a lttle Yellow Biplane!
Posted: Mon Mar 24, 2003 4:13 pmHi guys,
Here's the latest love of my life, a Dehavilind Tiger Moth Biplane I've named "Gypsy". I got her and a handful of her brothers and sisters off a CD Rom disc that came with issue 21 of PC Pilot that a freind picked up over the weekend. Gypsy is a moth painted up in pre WW2 training livery and is a joy to fly, sputtering to life when I fire her up, doing slow rolls and loop the loops, and I just love the sound of her wheels as she touches down, not the thud and hiss of other planes I have, but rather the sqeal of rubber kissing the ground accompanied by the creak of her shocks compacting. This picture shows "Gypsy" buzzing the tower at Knox Co Regional up in Maine after coming out of a loop. I don't have the magazine in front of me, but I'd like to thank the creator of this wonderful little airplane![img]URL[/img]
