Tour Scotland video of Biplanes flying above the River Tay by Newburgh, Fife, Scotland. A flying display on Heritage Day in Newburgh. David Cyster in the Tiger Moth and Dai Heather-Hayes in the Pitts Special give a wonderful display of flying this afternoon. The de Havilland DH.82 Tiger Moth is a 1930s biplane designed by Geoffrey de Havilland and was operated by the Royal Air Force and others as a primary trainer. The Tiger Moth remained in service with the RAF until replaced by the de Havilland Chipmunk in 1952, when many of the surplus aircraft entered civil operation. The Pitts Special, company designations S1 and S2) is a series of light aerobatic biplanes designed by Curtis Pitts. It has accumulated many competition wins since its first flight in 1944.
