DH.94 Moth Minor "In war and peace over Europe and Africa"

The production of the sports and touring DH.94 Moth Minor monoplane was interrupted by World War II. The De Havilland company stopped its production in Britain and moved it to Australia, where it was restarted for the needs of the RAAF. British-made aircraft were flown by private owners and in flying clubs. After the outbreak of the war, civil flying was restricted and the Moth Minors were used as training or liaison aircraft. One, originally an Egyptian machine, served as a liaison aircraft for the USAAF in Egypt in 1942. After the war, Moth Minors were flown in civil hands until the 1970s, participating in many events and races. Some, after overhauls, still keep flying today.

The kit offers parts arranged on two sprues, joined with injection-moulded windshields. Decals include the USAAF DH.94 Sand Fly from Egypt, the British G-AFTH in two forms, in yellow with RAF markings and camouflaged as it served as a liaison aircraft during the war. Civilian DH.94s are represented by G-AFOZ and G-AFPN, the former in cream scheme, the latter silver overall, both with colourful trim and start numbers.
