Thanks for wanting to adopt us. I tried to get plans out of DHC when Iworked for a customer of thiers, City Express. Unfortunately, all of thedrawings had been sent for archiving to England, so I was told. CanadianWarplane Heritage got back to me and were willing to help if I went toHamilton, a 3 days drive from here. Personallt, I prefer the DH-82c modelas it was the Canadian model and sported an enclosed, sliding canopy. Ihave found someone in Montreal that's willing to sell me a set of plansfor $200 CDN. It's a 22 drawing set that looks relatively complete. We also have a local Aerospace museum here in Calgary as well as anotherin Nanton and Westaskiwan, AB. Also, there is a member of the "FlyingFarmers" antique airplane club that is supposed to have a Tiger Moth herein Alberta. Once I started digging, things started turning up. I evenfound a batch of 8 DH-82's disassembled for $163,000. As for buying one,they are a little out of my price range. Even basket cases are fetching$30,000 USD. Good ones seem to be $60K USD +. Even with a new LOM engine,I could get a scratchbuilt one in the air for around the $20K - $25 K USDand it would be a NEW plane. But I don't need to explain the virtues ofbuilding your own plane to this venue ;-)On Thu, 16 Sep 1999, Earl Myers wrote:> Gents;> ...used to belong to the Tiger Moth Club of England......flew the red one> at Rhinebeck, what a hoot!

Smithsonian does indeed have plans available. Whatever is in therearchives can be had for the cost of copying and shipping. The archivesdivision handles plans requests.

The original DH-82C had a 130 hp Gypsy Major engine. Later, they wereupgraded to 145 hp Gypsy. These engines ran at about the 300-350 lb range.Personally, I think the Walter LOM engines would be a great replacementhaveing 140 hp and weighing less than the original.KenOn Fri, 17 Sep 1999 mboynton(at)excite.com wrote:> Ken and others,> > Just out of curiosity, what are the acceptable power and weight ranges for a> Tiger Moth engine?> > Mark Boynton> Gilbert, Arizona> > > > Ken,> > > > Did they quote you a price?> > > > dms> > > > --- Ken Beanlands wrote:> > > And, as if on queue, I just got an e-mail from the> > > Canadiam Museum of> > > Flight in Langley, British Columbia that not only> > > offered me copies of the> > > plans (for a price, of course), but also told me of> > > one of thier museum> > > members that HAS BUILT A DH-82C HOMEBUILT!
