As soon as I saw The Tiger Boys had named their latest Tiger Moth, "Miss Gloria," The Shadows of Knight's, sixties anthem, "Gloria" popped into my head. So - just for the fun of it - I cut footage of Miss Gloria to that sensational pop song - originally written by Van Morrison, and still available at The Shadows of Knight's web site: www.shadowsofknight.com
And be sure to visit our new, FREE, online, multi-media Aviation Journal: www.whyfly.aero
Btw, the Tiger Moth was named "Miss Gloria" in honour of the previous owner's daughter, who tragically died in a motorcycle accident while still in her teens.
This is the Canadian version with canopy (for heaven's sake!) and tailwheel (whatever next!) rather than a skid.

Wonderful planes. When one considers their age and how many there are still in flying condition , they truely are a testoment to the design and craftsmanship of the designers and builders
I;ll never own a real one , just have to be content with the RC versions LOL
