Today I had my 50th birthday present - a flight in a Tiger Moth. It was a fantastic experience.

There will be a video available in a few weeks.

I got to do a loop, barrel roll and stall turn!

My pilot was Brendan O'Brien for those that know.

Good for you Colin! What an experience. 'CDC is the oldest flying Tiger Moth and you were taken up by one of the true characters of the airshow/aviation world.

My mum and dad both had the same pleasure as yourself some years ago.

I only live a few miles up the road from Headcorn, and was out cycling yesterday afternoon near Ulcombe and 'CDC flew overhead, I wonder if it was you?!

If I had know you were there I would have cycled down to watch :)

~S~ Colin old chap,

Looks like you had a blast M8, did the old bird creak and grown when you did the barrel roll ?

The oldest Tiger Moth ay, were you at all scared ? LOL

Great that you had a top pilot, did you discuss how it differed from the FW 190 ?? LOL

Nice pics BTW

~S~ P.
