Tiger Moth Technical Forum
The Tiger Moth Club of New Zealand has organised a TMTF at Ardmore Airfield over the weekend of May
8th and 9th, 2021.
The Forum will be held at the NZ Warbirds #2 Hangar upstairs briefing room, commencing at 9.30 am Saturday, and 9.00 am Sunday. Expected finish times are 4.30 Sat., and 3.30 Sun. Lunch, morning and afternoon tea and coffee will be provided.
It will be presented by Glenn Thompson, LAME, IA, CPL, `D` Cat Instructor, and Moth restorer. It follows a previous successful forum held at Rangitata Island in 2018.
The forum is for engineers, owners, and pilots, and is designed to increase understanding of Tiger Moths and Gipsy Major engines.
A 90 page Forum Manual of pertinent information is issued to each participant. It covers a little on rebuilds of the airframe, and focuses on maintenance and defects of the airframe and engine, including top overhauls, piloting skills, ground and flight ops, both routine and emergency.
To cover expenses, there is a registration fee of $70. The fee includes lunch, tea and coffee for the two days, plus a take home copy of the TMTF Manual. The forum will be notified to other aviation organisations who have shown interest, in due course.
The course is limited to 30 participants, on a first in, first on basis. Some places are still available.
