Why do we have to have anti spinning stakes on the old DH-82A. And were are the slats on the top wing. I think pilots have gone soft with these warm fuzz ie extras. The Tiger was a great aeroplane without the stakes and it sure needs the lockable slats on the top wing.Without them you cant fly the Tiger properly. Why be afraid of spinning.
I've flew one of these vintage Tiger Moths at Duxford air museum. I had a Pilot with me since I do not have a pilots license but it was incredible. So far one of the best experiences in my life.
damn my grandad smashed one of these when he was young. Lol now he´s 90 yrs old and keeps saying "i´ve broke a leg tripping on the sidewalk but i crashed a tiger moth and left without a scratch" xD
Fascinating video. I last flew this plane in 1967 or 68 (not sure - mislaid my logbook) so it's great to see it still flying. See Pilot magazine Jan 2008 for an article on flying this particular aircraft. Happy landings!
I went flying yesterday in a tiger moth at dunkeswell air ground, my grandad trained in one as well. I did many stunts ( including loop the loop the g- force was amazing!) in it over Devon and it was magnificent I'm putting a video of me taking of on here.
My father trained in a Tiger Moth near Toronto, Ontario, Canada, in the 1940's. Thanks so much for the video. Now where would I be able to hitch a ride on one.

70+ year old airframe and still very widely used airplane ,, can be said of very few other planes.

There is just something deeply historical about hearing the the word "Contact" in an English accent.

Great aeroplane to fly. Good old undercarriage makes rough field landings smooth. Really impressive Sideslip Approach, to get in over tall trees!

Such a lovely plane. You're a lucky guy; I've always wanted to go up in a DH Tigermoth or a Stearman.

I flew in a Tiger Moth for my 40th back in 2005. I flew out of Redhill, fantastic experience, even had a go at flying it!
Recently took another flight this time in a DH Rapide out of Duxford, another fantastic experience! Wonderful aircraft.

You can't beat being in a Tigermoth, we recently had the experience of flying in one over the Gold Coast in Australia ! It was awesome!
