The Tiger Moth first flew in 1931 and quickly became a commerically successful aircraft (8,868 produced) and was the primary military trainer for many Commonwealth nations leading up to and during World War II. After the war many of those Tiger Moths went into private ownership and became a popular training aircraft at flight clubs. Even today there are still around 650 airworthy Tiger Moths and it is arguably the most famous biplane ever built.

Highly detailed model. Fully modelled aircraft including the engine and pilot and copilot models.
Includes 10 different repaints (2 in the the demo/freeware version)
Phyics Based Rendering model and textures (not available in demo/freeware version). Compatible with Prepar3D v4.4+ the new PBR model provides more realistic lighting and shading of the aircraft model.
In game Pilot's Handbook (shift+3) provides options to adjust animations, preferences, weight and fuel, maintenance, sounds, interactive checklists and description of aircaft systems.
In game help. Middle mouse click on any item to open the Pilot's Handbook to the correct page with a full explanation of that control.
Camera control. Adjust the default eyepoint within the game using the Pilot's Handbook. The camera can also be setup to provide handy side views. Note: This function may not be compatible with EZ-DOK or similar camera utilities.
The appearance of the model can easily be adjusted. Adjust such things as the air intake type, pitot tube style, venturi location, show/hide the windy airspeed gauge etc. Different adjustments can be saved for each different repaint.
Select either tail skid or tail wheel.
Customisable instruments. Select from 3 different types of airspeed gauge, 2 styles of altimeter and adjust the rotation angle of the engine RPM gauge.
Removable engine cowlings and prop. On the ground the engine cowlings and propeller may be removed for inspection/maintenance/screenshots.
Windscreen transparency. Easily adjust the level of transparency of the windscreens directly in game.
Custom sound system. The Tiger Moth Pro bypasses the default FSX sound system. This allows the engine sounds to more accurately simulate changes to manifold pressure and engine RPM which is impossible to achieve with the FSX sound system. While the custom sounds do provide better control of the engine sounds the disadvantage is that the sounds do not respond to eyepoint position. The Tiger Moth Pro can be set to use the default sound system if the user requires or prefers.
Engine damage and wear modelling. The Tiger Moth Pro can track engine wear and oil consumption with aircraft abuse leading to an eventual engine failure.
Engine autostart routine. Press the FSX auto start key command and the Tiger Moth Pro will automatically step through the start procedure. The user can also set a quick autostart procedure if you want to get flying as quick as possible.
Prop pull start. Grab the propeller and pull to start just like the real aircraft.
Controller calibration. The Tiger Moth Pro uses custom coding to control the throttle and mixture controls. You can use the control calibration page of the animation manager to setup your controller.
Every cockpit control has been mapped to an FSX key command.
In game weight and fuel loading. Use the Animation Manager to adjust the fuel, oil level and weights of the aircraft directly in game without needing to use the FSX menus.
Autopilot, comms radio and GPS are available as 2D pop-ups only.

Note that this aircraft does not come with a 2D main panel.

Version 1.20 update makes the following changes:

Installer options for P3D v5
A2A rain effects on windscreen (rear only as front is under the fuel tank). P3Dv4 and v5 PBR models only.
Fixed issue with exterior sounds for exterior default and interior custom setting
Adjustments to cockpit light for compatibility with P3D v5 PBR
Adjustments to oil pressure at lower rpm

Version 1.21 update fixes an issue with the compass card appearing black in the P3D v4 PBR models

Outstanding on all counts! The detail and physical characteristics are top notch. If you own just one classic biplane type make this one a top candidate. No, it’s not fast but it’s nimble and still capable of some aerobatics as long as you keep your load as low as possible. The “complete auto start” goes through all of the start up procedure pieces in detail. You could change that to a quick start (cntl E) or just set it to force a full manual start up. This plane has many little tidbits and added details from voice changes, to wear and tear tracking. Eventually your plane will need maintenance (if enabled) and yo7 will need to complete those maintenance tasks or suffer problems or failures. You get a lot more than bargained for here. Runs great with medium hi graphics settings at full realism on my 512 integrated graphics, Steam edition, even with intense weather settings while flying in add on scenery. Great for sight seeing VFR conditions

The best tiger Moth on the market. I love it! Matthias

This is a great simulation of this classic biplane - the VC and external modelling are excellent as are the flight dynamics and the sounds which are a very true replication of the Gypsy Major engine. It also comes with a very useful and innovative interactive pilots handbook. Highly recommended and great value!

ANamazing update to an amazing aircraft. Ant's original Tigermoth was a classic, and one of the best freeware aircraft ever available, but now it has been upgraded to an all new level. Beautiful 3D modelling, texturing, flight dynamics, sounds, along with all new configuration options, combine to make this new aircraft a must have for any GA flyer. The perfect plane for getting down low and slow to admire your scenery.
