I don't think there are any "proper" ones. The closest thing is probably an add on made by some amateur for FS98/2000 which can be downloaded at <a href="http://www.simviation.com." target="_blank">www.simviation.com.</a> They are of mixed quality.

The nearest thing to a simulator for a Tiger Moth or any training aircraft of its era would be the "Link" trainer, used for instrument instruction on the ground. It looked rather like a kiddie toy version of an aeroplane: a little tub with a hood, or fully enclosed, mounted on an air pump device to allow some motion, and fitted with flight instruments. Pilot Officer Prune would sit and play in this whilst his desperate instructor had a smoke and a heart attack nearby. It is said that Prune once managed to land the Link wheels up, but the records of this incident have still not been released, for reasons of national security.. .. .There are pictures of and information about Link Trainers at . .. .<a href="http://www.mapsairmuseum.org/linktrainer.htm" target="_blank">http://www.mapsairmuseum.org/linktrainer.htm</a>. .. .and . .. .<a href="http://www.wpafb.af.mil/museum/early_years/ey19a.htm" target="_blank">http://www.wpafb.af.mil/museum/early_years/ey19a.htm</a>

A local ATC Squadron has a link trainer and I hear it is being restored. Even has the plotter table next to it.. .. .Kermie
