Description
Precise, Accurate and Highly Detailed Airfix Model Kit. 1: 48 Scale. Skill Level: 3 (where 1 is for the beginner and 4 is for the more experienced modeller). Number of parts: 91. Dimensions (mm): L152 x W184 Even though the classic de Havilland Tiger Moth has to be considered one of the most important aircraft in the history of British aviation, it rarely receives the popular respect it deserves and is usually in the shadow of more glamourous types, such as the Supermarine Spitfire and de Havillands own Mosquito. Despite this, without the availability of thousands of Tiger Moths to train a constant stream of pilots for military and civilian service, Britain and her Commonwealth would have been in real trouble during WWII and most pilots who would go on to fly the numerous Allied aircraft types of the Second World War would have learnt their trade on this classic training aircraft.
