Designed by Arthur Hagg in 1932, the Fox Moth with its cockpit aft of a small cabin, has something of the lines of Hagg's later creation the celebrated de Havilland Comet. The attractive aircraft features many pleasing shapes, the characteristic de Havilland tail and wing tips, the elegant gipsy engine cowling and the way the shapes of the front windows are repeated in the Fox Moth's nose profile.

Conceptually a 'feeder airliner', the depressed economy of the 1930's was reflected in both the need for and the development of the Fox Moth, which borrowed components from the De Havilland DH 82A Tiger Moth.

Although we have already designed the Fox Moth in 1/72 scale, the new scale is an opportunity to add much detail and create a more visually impressive model.

We've included a picture of our 1/72 scale with an image of the 1/48 scale fuselage for comparison.
