I think you'll find that the utterly butterly planes are Stearman not Tiger moths!

The UB team do indeed use Stearmans! Lovely planes they are as well.
For a nice Stearman you could try either http://www.simviation.com/fs2004vintage49.htm or http://www.simviation.com/fs2004vintage31.htm for a nice Tiger Moth try http://www.simviation.com/fs2004vintage28.htm (with float and ski upgrades available at http://www.simviation.com/fs2004vintage30.htm)

Unfortunately neither of those Stearman biplanes is the same as the version used by the UtBut team.  And David Eckert has said there are quite a few differences between his and theirs, and he definitely won't be making the necessary modifications to his.

I'm sure there are quite a few of us who'd like our own UtBut girls on top of our planes!
