EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the grace and elegance of the de Havilland DH80A Puss Moth, registration G-ABEH, as it soars through the clear blue sky. The Puss Moth, a two-engine, four-seat monoplane, was designed and manufactured by the de Havilland Aircraft Company in the late 1930s. It quickly gained popularity among private pilots and flying clubs due to its reliable performance, economical fuel consumption, and distinctive appearance. The aircraft in this image, G-ABEH, was first registered in the United Kingdom in 1938 and has an interesting history. It was originally operated by a flying school in Scotland before being sold to a private owner in the 1950s. The plane underwent extensive restoration in the late 1980s and has since been preserved in pristine condition. The Puss Moth's distinctive features include its sleek, streamlined fuselage, rounded wings, and twin tail fins. The cockpit is open to the elements, providing an unobstructed view for the pilot and passengers. The aircraft's two engines, mounted on the wings, were a significant innovation for the time, providing improved stability and performance. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of the de Havilland DH80A Puss Moth. It captures the spirit of adventure and freedom that comes with flying, and the timeless beauty of a classic aircraft. Whether you're an aviation enthusiast, a history buff, or simply someone who appreciates the art of flight, this image is sure to inspire and captivate.
