The Moth turns 100 today!

The DH60 Moth took to the air for the first time at Stag Lane airfield on 22nd February 1925, 100 years ago today.
NZ Warbirds organised a small gathering at Ardmore today to clebrate the event.

It was great to see NZ's only active DH60 Moth, ZK-ADT, up from Hastings to join in.


While there were several other examples of DH aircraft also on outside display, the only Tiger Moth to take to the air while I was there was ZK-AKC, a fairly recent arrival from Dunedin.
