More4’s Warplane Workshop concludes its current series on Monday, May 19 at 9:00 PM GMT with “The Flying Tiger,” an episode centered on the restoration of a historic biplane.
Engineer Nicky Wood and her team undertake the challenge of rebuilding an RAF Tiger Moth. The program highlights the aircraft’s significant, yet often overlooked, contribution to The Great War, where it was instrumental in training tens of thousands of Allied airmen despite being relatively outdated with a top speed barely reaching 100 mph.
The focus of this final episode is on preparing the restored Tiger Moth, registration “Golf Mike Oscar,” to be certified for carrying paying passengers, readying it for the upcoming passenger season. Warplane Workshop aims to place viewers in the cockpits of aircraft that have shaped history.
