Initially I thought it was a Sherwood Ranger 🙂

Thank you Blue Robin. I should have known as my son in NZ has a Fisher Horizon 2 and he had mentioned he’d looked at a Tiger replica.

Peter,
Enjoy pottering around the sky in her. Very nice looking little machine. Just right for a lazy bimble around the local area on a warm evening. I’m not jealous honest (much).

Keeping the stick back and weights on the tail might have helped surprised it did not go on its nose !!
😮
It would have been sensible to sit in the aeroplane, to keep the tail down. Crikey, its even got an electric start, so why risk that lovely prop.
If outside the cockpit, a simple bungee or even the harness tying the stick back is absolutely vital in an aeroplane of that weight. Any more throttle on the start-up and it WOULD have nosed over!

How bloody dangerous can you get?
It’s a very odd looking Tiger (despite the flat four) as the cabane is distorted and the u/c looks more Cub-like. Presumably a replica?
