They are eligible for operation on a LAA permit to fly now, so that would bring operating costs down a bit, still thirsty on fuel and oil though. If you are handy you could do your own maintenance, recovering etc under a LAA inspector’s supervision. Insurance could be cheaper if you didn’t have hull insurance. Depends how you go about things but it will still be quite costly. Propstrike obviously knows you as he states in post5 that you’ve not got your licence yet so as he says get well checked out on tailwheel stuff before going for a Moth, then get someone well versed with a Tiger Moth to check you out in one. Good luck and go for it if that is what you want.
