DH Moth Major replica first flight

No-it’s English registered and made it’s Woburn debut about ten years ago.
Reg escapes me at present.

Aha .. Now I know. Got to be G-ABZB, c/n 5011 – ex G-AZAB, SE-AIA (w/o 6.9.41). As I gather there wasn’t much usefull bits left of this Moth, apart the documentation of course. Anyway, these parts were collected here in Sweden in ca 1980.

From memory of earlier FlyPast’s when Bob Ogden recovered the remains of one from Sweden -it consists of D.H 60 Moth wings coupled with a wooden fuselage and a Tiger Moth Gipsy Major 1 . A nice aeroplane.

I guess you mean SE-AMO, DH.60G-III Moth (Replica) c/n 834, built by Björn Blomstrand: http://www1.airpics.com/showimg.php?imgid=95547

I’m sure that there’s a lot of Tiger parts in this one, and I assume that the fuselage is new build. The builder/owner/pilot is Mike Maniatus, who also owns a flying replica of a DH-71 racer, http://dh71tigermoth.com/ .

Looks very nice:)

Very nice – like the turkeys at the end.
What’s this replica built up from? Tiger Moth parts?
