This plane is simply beautiful.

''Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines''. Surely. THEE most loved Bi-Plane ever ? Good music too.

Amazing how he walked that a/c around in a half circle to line up w/ the runway with the wings level. I needed to watch it twice over. Smooth.

I've flown as passenger in that Tiger, out over Waiheke Island, plus a loop, barrel roll and Immelmann. Magic!

I had a Tiger in the late 70’s early 80’s and this took me back to my younger days having fun. Mine was English Tiger serial PG-676.

Fantastic...flying..sound..music..content...does that thing even have hondo under the cowl?.. bet not.. wow...slipped it flat sideways so long it looked close to stall but hey bi wings have alot of lift. One thing about those crazy taildraggers... they know they are not done flying it till it is parked and tied down.

Yes, in the 'old' days. Sadly the Hunter hasn't flown for a number of years :-(

This is more commonly known as a ‘flat turn’, it’s often seen in crazy flying displays of lightly loaded aircraft, Cub display pilots in the states can often be seen flying the manoeuvre.

ZK BLI was once owned by Andy Padgett who had a small private flying school at Momona Airport in Dunedin in the 1970's A close friend of mine was in BLI taking off from a grass strip when she hit a deeper than expected puddle of water and flipped over on her back. Andy as calm as ever and still hanging upside down was heard to say. "Well Blackie, I guess we weren't supposed to be going anywhere today"..True story.

@omepeet2006 7 лет назад

Wasn't there at the time, but I can see it happening. And yes, that's the true instructor: stay calm as, whatever.

@MackerelSkyLtd 7 лет назад

For the first minute or so, it looked like a real-life version of the "aerobatic" routine with the T(h)ompsons in Tintin and the Black Island. Fortunately it didn't feature the spectacular ending from that routine!

@omepeet2006 7 лет назад

@smigoltime 7 лет назад

my age (17), I have a defect of vision and spinal curvature, so for now I can only dream and watch them fly ;)

@omepeet2006 7 лет назад

How about flying with an instructor?

@smigoltime 7 лет назад

sure when I finish school and my parents will agree (which is quite hard to achieve) xd

@omepeet2006 7 лет назад

How about asking your parents to (help) fund one flying lesson in a Tiger Moth when you manage to finish your school with good results? It'll be an experience you'll never forget.

@letsseeif 3 месяца назад

The mark of a good pilot is to do a good three pointer landing. I realise that in order for these old aircraft to keep flying, they need to be careful and that means wheeler landings. I learned to fly in 1957 at Melbourne Australia.

@curtite 7 лет назад

Most elegant biplane. Wonder what the swept wings do aerodynamically? Less drag? Thanks for the air show been long time I seen Tiger Moth flow so deftly.

@HistAvFilmUnit 7 лет назад

Part o the reason for the swept wings i the Tiger Moth is to retain the centre of gravity. IN the earlier Gypsy Moth (DH.60), the wings were NOT swept back, and due to the design it was actually relatively tricky to get in and out of the front cockpit, underneath the top wing. Thus in the Tiger Moth the top going was moved forward slightly to make entry and exit easier, but in order to retain the correct centre of gravity the wings needs tone swept back slightly. See here: De Havilland DH.60 Gipsy Moth In New Zealand

@jimetchells 6 лет назад

I think you don't know what sweep or cog means ? And also stagger

@justincase1575 2 года назад

I owned a Tiger and still have the book on its history. Wings were swept to make it easier to get in and out of front cockpit in case of a bail out. Sweeping meant it could have center section moved foreward but still maintain correct c/g.

@andyberry4346 7 лет назад

at 1:58-2:02 is it a trick of the camera, or did that airplane fly actual sideways? he kicks the rudder hard to port and it looks like he moved in the direction of the wingtip.

@HistAvFilmUnit 7 лет назад

Probably more of an optical illusion as the plane wouldn't fly sideways, but at that point it's certainly skidding to the right quite substantially...

@andyberry4346 7 лет назад

that makes sense. i wouldn't think it possible to fly sideways, which is why i felt compelled to ask.

@RWBHere Год назад

Beautiful flying. Shame about the music. The engine sounds alone would be far more interesting.

Poorly presented! The camera is zoomed in too close to the aircraft! Zooming out would give the flying display some context! Amateur! How to ruin a great subject!
