I love Tiger Moths too and Ill do my first solo on one sometime in the next few months. I've only done about 10 hours so Im probably too inexpierienced to offer any tips.. .Stories? Someone told me that once they saw a Tiger Moth being landed in such strong winds that it was actually moving backwards in the air just before touchdown. Not sure about that one as it would have had to have been a very strong gust of at least 45mph. Makes you wonder though.. .Without knowing your proportions speechless, I would say don't worry too much as I have seen some rather ample gentlemen flying Tiger Moths.
