Refer to the Discord Server for the Flight Card for this event.
Is there a recommended free Tiger Moth that can be downloaded? I don’t have one in my hanger, so was thinking of using the default cub, which has a similar cruise speed instead, if that’s OK.
Strongly suggest the commercial Tiger Moth from Just Flight. I think it might also be on the Market Place. It isn’t expensive and is worth every cent. You won’t regret getting it as we plan many more events for this excellent aircraft.
