De Havilland Fox Moth (VH-USJ)

Great photo, Thanks! Appears to be passenger carrying. Does anyone know how old this aircraft style might be?

Lovely photo Kurt!

Hi Mike, thanks for your comment. It was a great day, as always. The bush flies were there as well.

WOW! I didm't even know this aircraft existed before! That is a unique design!

Dwight Hartje it's a beautiful aircraft.

First aircraft i flew in was a Fox Moth. Would have been the mid 1950's at Southport Beach UK. A few years later was an aircadet and flew numerous times in De Havilland Chipmunks out of RAF Woodvale.

Beautiful aircraft and restoration, and a great snap, Kurt!

IFE (In-Flight Entertainment) for pax for no additional charge - consisted of watching the passing scenery, and maybe some light aerobatics!

Hi Alan and David thank you both for your comments. It was a very pleasant afternoon look forward to it each year.

I knew the Moth... but I had never seen that!! congr Kurt!

Hi Serge, thank you very much for your comment. It is a lovely aircraft.

Back when the passengers were as gutsy as the pilot!! Can you imagine the noise with the exhaust just outside, and the tingling on your toes?? Excellent photo!

adelma Thank you.

Max Ward had one of these, it was his first bushplane, later company formed into Wardair, of course long gone now. I use to fly in Wardair 747 to Barbados in the 70's.
