PLANE OF THE MONTH
TAI’s TIGER MOTH DH22A
This is probably the most impressive POM that we have ever featured. Recently purchased by Tai from its builder and first owner.
It was constructed from a Hangar 9 kit. Wing span 2.1M (80 inch), length 1.8m.
Engine NGH 38cc four stroke, with 18x8 prop.
The kit has been modelled on an actual Tiger Moth currently based in Queensland. This was built in Australia during WW2 as a military trainer. Registered VH-BBC.
Tai’s plane is spectacular in the air, lifting off at very low speed, and looking and sounding convincingly realistic in low speed flight.
