EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the iconic de Havilland DH.82A Tiger Moth, registration number G-ANKK (msn 83590), during the Sywell Popular Flying Association Rally on 15 July 1972. The Tiger Moth, a classic biplane trainer aircraft, was manufactured by de Havilland between 1931 and 1952. Its distinctive open-cockpit design, with its two-bladed propeller and bright yellow and green livery, has made it a beloved figure in the world of aviation. The Tiger Moth served as a primary trainer for the Royal Air Force and the Royal Australian Air Force during World War II, and its robust design and ease of handling made it a popular choice for both military and civilian pilots. After the war, many Tiger Moths were sold as surplus and found new life in the civilian aviation scene. The Sywell Popular Flying Association Rally was an annual event that attracted aviation enthusiasts and pilots from all over the country. The Tiger Moth, with its distinctive roar and graceful flight, was a crowd favorite, and the sight of it soaring through the skies was a thrilling experience for all. This photograph captures the essence of a bygone era in aviation history, a time when the thrill of flight was a more tangible and accessible experience. The Tiger Moth remains an enduring symbol of the passion and adventure that drives the aviation community, and this photograph serves as a testament to its enduring legacy.
