TIGER MOTH

Many thousands of pilots LEARNED to fly a Tiger Moth . It was said to be "easy to fly but difficult to fly WELL." Those that I flew lacked the complication and the comfort of having radio. you were really on your own when flying solo ! The instruments were all that a pupil needs... in the earlier stages. Too many could confuse. (Automatics etc. can come later, and you wanted to learn to FLY didn't you ?)
