The DeHavilland Tiger Moth was one of the most successful trainers for young pilots. The UK and Commonwealth nations all used Tiger Moths long after the end of WWII for training young pilots. Inexpensive to operate and simple ot maintain and operate, the Tiger Moth is still popular today. Over 7,000 Tiger Moths were manufactured and approximately 250 survive today. This particular Tiger Moth was once owned by Cliff Robertson and was used in a lot of Hollywood movies over the years. It was once flown by Charles Lindbergh. Today, the current owner sells rides in the airplane, touring around the area near Cable Airport.
