Tiger Moth

Tiger Moth is a yellow and red biplane, who is described to be reckless and daring. In the magazines, Tiger Moth has a face.

Thomas & Friends
Tiger Moth was rude and had a tendency to fly dangerously low on the ground. He once did a dangerous trick above the Fat Controller and his family while they were on holiday. However, he crashed into a haystack a few days later. Harold brought the Fat Controller to the site when they were searching for him after he was reported missing, and the Fat Controller had a stern talk with his pilot, informing him that he and his plane will be grounded when he speaks to his controller about what happened.

Tiger Moth was later seen helping to promote "Harry Topper's Fair" at Tidmouth Bay by carrying a large banner behind him.

Personality
Tiger Moth did dangerous tricks to show off and was very rude, but learned his lesson after crashing into a haystack.

Basis
Tiger Moth is loosely based on, and he's named after, a de Havilland Tiger Moth with a radial engine and tail resembling that of a Sopwith Camel. According to an interview with Robert Gauld-Galliers by SiF, Tiger Moth is actually a Nieuport 17 biplane.

Livery
Tiger Moth is painted yellow and red.
