Paul J Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Gorgeous!!!!!!!!!! Got to have each of those. One thing I noticed with these is that two of the schemes have appeared in the Pavla kit in the past!! And I bet the Royal Navy one will be popular!!! In particular the silver dope and dayglo one. I recall seeing this one in the flesh at a show down at Culdrose in 1970!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 RN one for me, the tough part will be deciding which of the two camo schemes to do, maybe use the other decals on an Airfix one. Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 I'm just trying to visualise one of those on the Ark's steam catapult.... A fuselage launched into the wild blue yonder with two set of wings trying frantically to catch up. Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antoine Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Nice! I love the one in French pyjama with yellow/red stripes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Fleming Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 (edited) I'm just trying to visualise one of those on the Ark's steam catapult.... Not Ark, but the silver ones did fly onto and off Eagle. Not sure about the grey/green one - at first i thought that was the RNHF's old Tiger but now not so sure.

KRK4m Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 What a crazy "naval" scheme on this T7187 (still flying today AFAIK)! Upper surfaces in Ocean Grey/Blue Grey and Sky Blue undersurfaces? I've seen the photos of this particular Tiger Moth while on floats some 40 years ago, but even then the darker grey didn't look similar to the Ocean Grey (maybe rather EDSG) and the lighter grey was somewhere midway between SGM and Ocean Grey. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul J Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Studying these options again and noticed a typo for the Royal Navy serial for XL715 quoted as 'LX715'. But the WW2 RAF ones has those code numbers described as 'white 10' and' blue G', my pet hates!

Any ideas? It's a 'modern' (well, 70s) interpretation. Doubt it's accurate and is probably meant to represent EDSG and Dark Slate Grey http://www.abpic.co.uk/photo/1154185/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But ANY Slate Grey should be at least GREENISH while no one of these greys is. And these Sky Blue (Med Light Blue?) undersurfaces? Does anybody have a photo of the real FAA Tiger Moth wearing Temperate Sea Scheme? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ptmvarsityfan Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Have received my AZ Queen Bee from Hannants today, looks good. Seems to be a standard AZ Tiger Moth with an additional large (well relatively large!) sprue with new fuselage, floats etc specific to the Queen Bee. Nice decals too, Cheers, Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
