Tiger Moth
Sunday challenge 186: Free subject
When I left school at 18, I got a job with the Institute of Aviation Medicine, the IAM, a subdivision of the RAE, the royal Aircraft Establishment. Everything was exciting in those days, and I joined the gliding club which met at weekends on the airfield. The glider was towed using either a Jaguar car or a Tiger Moth. I have been in the latter several times, towing a glider, and actually have taken the controls for a short time. Both the gliding and the Tiger Moth expriences live in my memory, and I often wonder how I was such a daredevil. These days I'm just an old lady with a camera. ;-)
This photo was taken at the Cosford Air Museum, as was the PiP.
