DH.82 Tiger Moth model aircraft, 1500 mm wingspan, 1:6, SD7034 profile
The de Havilland DH.82 “Tiger Moth” made its maiden flight in 1931 and quickly became the standard primary trainer of the Royal Air Force and many Commonwealth air forces.
Its simple, robust wood-steel tube construction with biplane wings proved ideal for training thousands of pilots during the Second World War; a total of around 8,800 aircraft were built, including license-built aircraft in Canada and Australia.
In addition to training, the type also served as a liaison, target towing and reconnaissance aircraft.
After the end of the war, large numbers of them entered the civilian market, where they were used as sports aircraft, glider tractors, and even as agricultural aircraft for spraying operations.
To this day, numerous Tiger Moths remain in flightworthy condition around the world and are presented at air shows as the epitome of the classic biplane training aircraft.
