The Tiger Moth can be best described as Iconic, it was developed from the very successful Gipsy Moth and designed by Geoffrey De Havilland in the 1930s to meet Air Ministry specifications for a new preliminary Trainer for the RAF. The most noticeable feature that distinguishes the Tiger Moth from similar DH bi-planes is the distinctive swept upper wing, which allowed better access for a pilot while wearing a parachute. The Tiger Moth went on to become a huge success all over the world and was used by several airforces, it wasn’t replaced by the RAF until 1952 when the DH Chipmunk entered service, the “Tiggy” is to this day a very popular choice with pilots all over the world and is known to be rewarding to fly.
This large scale Tiger Moth is expertly crafted and finished in a beautiful, highly detailed paint scheme. Complete with scale rigging wire, wing struts and undercarriage, this beauty will be sure to put a smile on any scale model enthusiast’s face!
Presence at the airfield is one thing this model is not lacking. Once fully assembled it is quite a sight to behold.
