de Havilland Tiger Moth Floatplane | | 4" | | 4.75" |
The DH 82 Tiger Moth bi-plane, designed by Geoffrey de Havilland, took to the skies in 1931 and operated chiefly by the RAF, lasted in service into the early 1950s. This 1:72 scale replica comes with a tooling modification to include floats for landing on water. Decorated in a marine camouflage of mid and dark grey with pale blue underwings, our model is numbered T7187, which appears in black on both the wings and the fuselage, together with the RAF roundel. The floats and float struts are finished in silver. The open cockpit is moulded in muted green and other finite details include black propeller blades and spinner tips as well as black tyres, wing walkways, exhaust pipes and tail skid.
Designed as a basic trainer for the RAF, the de Havilland DH.82 Tiger Moth was first flown in October, 1931. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
