Hello. My name is Jose and this is my first post.
Although I have always been scared of flying (particularly in commercial jets) I have also always had a dream of owning and flying a biplane. For some funny reason it's always been the only plane I have ever pictured being able to fly.
I've waiting to see High Road to China since 1983-missed it in the theaters and it was just released on DVD for the first time-and well, those biplanes just made me fall in love.
Now, it would be some time before I could do it, but I'd like to do research as early as possible.
Any opinions on the kits on pilotfriend.com? By Fisher I believe.
Particularly the Fisher Tiger Moth and the Fisher RS 80 Tiger Moth?
Seem like it's a good idea, but I don't want to commit suicide.
Any advice would help and be appreciated.
In the meantime I'm planning on taking a couple of flights on a biplane asap.
Thanks!
Jose
