- 1945 (all marks) The de Havilland Tiger Moth biplane is an iconic & instantly recognisable aircraft. It is also one of a handful of planes that attracts the widest possible recognition outside the specialist group. Of nearly 10, 000 built, it is thought that more than 1, 000 Tiger Moths still survive over six decades on, & over half remain airworthy. They are also affordable classic aircraft at £40-50, 000 for an airworthy example. The author takes a close look at the construction of the Tiger Moth, acquiring & restoring an example, owning & flying one, & the engineer's view of keeping it all running & airworthy. " Full marks for the depth of research" Octane " An awful lot has been published on the Tiger Moth before, & the acid test of any new book on the machine is whether you can learn anything new from it. This particular ' Workshop Manual' passes that test with flying colours" Todays Pilot Hardback, 270 x 210mm, 160 pages, 215 colour & 75 b&w illustrations
