Bless her!

Well, how many HAVE I got then? There's the Eagle, the DO27 and the "Warwick Carter" Tiger Moth and now...

At last!

The Just Flight Tiger Moth - Dual System too... Can't wait to paint her!...

Nice - whats the VC and flight dynamics like? Seems rather expensive as download and CD.

The real life ZK-AUD is very nice - better than new I would think.

Have flown as a passenger in a Tiger many years ago - very gentle landing in a rather windy day if I remember correctly.

I flew into Bern Belp (Switzerland) in FS9 - I'd been flying my Dornier around there and wasn't bothered about closing and restarting FS9, so I installed and changed planes.

Then I opened FSX to compare at the same airport.

FPS is a wee bit down in "x", but nothing that can#t be tweaked.

Flight? Superb - especially now that I have pedals as well. Never flown in a real one though, but she feels good. I have flown in a Chippie (same sound almost) and I recall plenty of Tiggie flying displays... those Gypsies have a sound of their own.

This plane is a must! Don't worry if you don't have FSX yet. She's a head turning beaut in FS9 too.

First glance at the paintkit tells me that a paint will (should) work in either version - now there's a bonus. We have been spoilt rotten lately.... The DO27 is immaculate and so is this. If you love throaty prop jobs, you'll love the new Tiggie.

Damned expensive, yes - in NZ$ for sure.

Christmas is coming and this is THE present for old plane lovers (well and the DO27 - so spread your "Santa letters" around a bit :D )

That came "With the kit"...

All I need to do now is re-process my ten "Carter" skins for this model now... :( :)

Hi Chris,

Very nice plane from just looking at your pics. Just in case you also have the freeware Buecker Jungmann, which I find excellent, how does the Tiger compare to her in flight dynamics and overall realism. It's payware, so it ought to be better in theory. But the freeware Buecker is damn good, I have to admit. And yes, like you I just looove the Do 27. Terrific little bird.

I have the Buecker Bernd.

Comparison is favourable. I'd even say that this Tiggie is better quality.

:drool: B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L Chis!

That moth has just been put atop my wishlish, it looks excellent!

Is that ZK-AUD scheme included by default, or is that one of your new creations?

I think we can make an exception for such glorious pictures! ;)
