Photo Comment

Built in Oxford in 1942, DE995 interestingly wasn't really needed for the war effort and was stored until 1944 when this Tiger Moth was assigned to a Free French training unit. She served in the French air force until 1951 and then in aero clubs as F-BGFL and F-BKFL. Sold to the USA in 1972, she now adds a touch of Britishness to the Stonehenge Air Museum while still airworthy.
