We've finally got all our three Tiger Moths painted in the same colours and back in the air. They're now all painted in Norwegian Army Air Corps colours from 1940, when they were used as spotter and liaison planes. The three of them together in the same colours is a sight that hasn't been seen in Norway since April 8, 1940.



We were on our way to an airshow due to start tomorrow, but as you can probably see the weather turned sour, so it's up at 5:30 tomorrow for an early start. It's a two-hour flight and we have to be there before the show starts at 10!
