included the rather gratuitous comment: "if you've ever flown a Moth, it's a fairly overrated experience."
Oh dear, so TCT chose not to recreate the celebrated event with authenticity, because she thinks a Moth is overrated. Perhaps the Moth is not exaggerated enough to suit her needs. I've flown them both, and I would prefer flying the Moth. In 1980 I was a very junior participant in the latter stage of a cross Canada air antique rally, which included a Moth. You could always pick those two pilots out crowd after arrival, as they had the biggest smiles!
