Anthony Releases Freeware Tiger Moth!!

[anatolpopov]

I was just wondering, Anthony, are you doing also float version?

 

[nio]

Just completed my first full flight and it went great.

But has anyone noticed: The prop rotates the opposite of most other planes pulling the nose to the right on takeoff per the manual and I found this to be the case. However, in flight when trimmed in and in level flight, the plane's drift was always to the left, does that make sense?

I turned off all weather and winds to insure I wasn't bucking a head, tail, or crosswind.

From the accompanying pilot's notes

19. Take Off
Prop torque will tend to turn the aircraft to the right (remember prop spins
opposite to most other aircraft) so a bit of left rudder may required to
keep aircraft straight.

Holy Cow!

I have been too busy on the snow and in FS9, first plane, eh. Incredible! :ernae:

Got the Paint Kit too, sweet. Now to fly before I go back out on the snow this evening during the big moon.

I finally got some time to spend in this plane today, and I've just got to say 'amazing!!'. It flies great, it looks great, and man is it fun! Thanks again for this great plane, I'm enjoying it tremendously.

Not sure if he is thinking of a float version, we'll wait until he chimes in here again

I'm enjoying this one so much, I thought I'd have a go at repainting it. Painting of any kind isn't a strong point with me, so I don't know how this will come out, but so far using the excellent paint kit supplied I have this

The original is here http://www.airliners.net/photo/De-Havilland-DH-82A/0872419/M/

There's lots of detail missing, the red edging around every surface for example and the nose needs quite a bit more doing.

Does anyone know what the font for the registration is, it's very square and appears both sides, top and bottom?

I've been enjoying this plane very much... a fantastic effort and gift! I haven't done a lot of painting lately but this has gotten me back into it. There is still a little work left to do...

Anthony... Great aircraft and great paint kit, very easy to use.

Regards,

Mike

Sweet shots Mike!

No idea what that font is, but that paint is coming along beautifully. That's definitely one I'm going to want to add to my hangar when you're finished with it. Looks great.

Top repaints guys. I love the new panel in C-GMTH.

@anatolpopov . Did they make Tiger Moths with floats? Don't know myself. Either way I have no planes to make a floater. Sorry.

Here's Ian's G-BMPY which will be available in a day or two on aussiex.

@anatolpopov . Did they make Tiger Moths with floats?

yup, did a ski version as well, not sure how many where made though. During the war the canadians also put enclosed canopys on em which looked rather odd

 

[anatolpopov]

Thanks Pekka. It's great repaint :ernae:

 

[bushpilot]

Nice shots:salute:

My vintage flying skills have really rusted. I've probably become accustomed in high powered airplanes and I've already stalled and crashed this twice. But it's great fun to fly:ernae:

Excellent repaints all round, guys... You know what, Ant? I think you may have made a major keeper here. :d

 

[Dexdoggy]

Downloaded, installed and tested last night. What an absolute bloody awesome plane! An FSX milestone I reckon! :ernae:

 

[Cazzie]

Ant, I finally got some time with your Tiger Moth today. Let me say none of the accolades stated here are overstatements, this is the first airplane that has performed this well and looked so good in FSX on my system in a long time, that I had to take a dedicated flight. I had the privilidge of flying in a Tiger Moth owned by Rev. A. Paul Wilson, who flew out of the Flying Circus Aerodrome in Bealton, VA. Its US registration is N-8232, I shall begin a repaint once I locate my prints using that excellent Paint Kit provided. :ernae:

This is better than much of the payware aircraft I have for FSX and that is no bull hockey.

Hello Anthony,

Thank you very much for the wonderful Tiger Moth model. The airplane is pleasant to fly. Flying in the Tiger Moth model I can understand why the plane was so succesful in training beginers pilot.

Have a good day
