For Sale: Replica DH82 Tiger Moth Biplane

I am selling a 2001 replica of the iconic Tiger Moth DH82 biplane, with the added benefit of being classified as an ultralight aircraft. This fully scaled 1:1 version is registered in the Czech Republic under the microlight category with the designation OK_GUP05.

Powered by the reliable Valter Mikron 75hp four-cylinder inverted engine, this aircraft offers both exceptional performance and ease of use. With a climb rate of 3m/s for solo winter flights and 2.5m/s for summer flights with a pilot and passenger, the Tiger Moth provides a thrilling and comfortable experience.

The cruising speed of this aircraft ranges from 100-115km/h, while the stall speed is a mere 55km/h. Offering impressive fuel efficiency, the Tiger Moth consumes only 12-16 liters of Mogas (automobile gasoline) per 100km - a feature that makes it not only economical but also environmentally friendly.

Equipped with standard board instruments, dual controls, and differential brakes, this aircraft ensures a smooth and controlled flying experience. The smoke installation further adds to the thrill and versatility of this aircraft.

The frame and engine have logged a total of 715 hours, with the engine having undergone a recent overhaul by a fabric expert. It has a total time before overhaul (TBO) of 1200 hours, making it a reliable investment for any aviation enthusiast.

Additionally, this Tiger Moth replica comes with several accessories, including an installed Filser radio intercom, two reserve propellers, a reserve battery, a second Microlight radio, a portable aero-radio, and two leather helmets and goggles. It also includes gaskets, seals, and other necessary equipment - ensuring a complete package for the new owner.

Interested buyers are welcome to visit and test-fly the aircraft at the LILF - Castelnuovo don Bosco airport, conveniently located near Turin in northern Italy. 

The asking price for this remarkable aircraft is €42,000.
