Description

This is the cockpit of a Tiger Moth during starting procedure for a pleasure flight for the man in the front who is celebrating his 21st birthday. The pilot is a lady. The pic was taken at Compton Abbas airfield just South of Shaftesbury in Dorset. I was there for a pleasure flight also.

At this point in "Raiders of the Lost Ark", a snake appeared in the cockpit. Sorry, that's just what it reminded me of :)

We should have set you up with a helmet-cam for your flight. Neat shot Jeff.

Rather you than me mate. Nine years in the RAF as a mule driver, I didn't mind towing planes about, but going up pffft. I'd rather have both feet on the ground mate :)

Yep, I AM very envious of this guy.. They do these flights near me as well, in a Moth but I don't drive so that's that! Great shot Jeff very well caught! Rob
