Good to see the dining table being used correctly. Thats what I said to the other half , but i did have to hide for a bit and it was a long list, even tough i tride to explain it was far too hyperthermic to set rigging up out side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zz Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Flight 1, That is a good looking Tiger. What do you mean by "North west territory'. This Tiger was one of three transferred from RAAF to RAN for training in 1954. All retired 1958. The NW code on the fin indicates the aircraft was based at Nowra in New South Wales. A17-692 now flies with the RAAF Museum, Point Cook, Victoria. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Welford Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Flight 1, what engine are you using? I too have a TC 30% Tiger Moth kit to build - it's just a time thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the engine i have gone a bit ott with a toruePro 70cc which i got cheeply a couple of years ago so we will see . a 50cc petrol 4 stroke would be fine or go with there ZG38 engine with geared reduction drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
