Default RE: Great Planes Tiger Moth experiences ?



It flys rather docile. With this much wing area, it hangs like a kite with just a 5 mph wind and idling. Very slow landing, easy to control.
I was able to Dead Stick land it 3 times. No problem!! Elevator responds very good with factory throws. And one of the dead sticks I even landed opposit the wind direction. And it landed fine. I did have it nose over after it stopped on the runway. But that is due to the rough runway we have at the field, lots of ruts and stones!!
But yes it flys very controllable and sounds real neat with the 4 stroke 91.
Its a keeper for me.
