That is one impressive bit of kit, thanks for posting. I miss the Tiger we had here for a number of years...always led the final mass fly-by at Flying Legends. Looks so big from the side but so darn sleek when full frontal (errrr, can I say that ?)

Awesome!

 

[GrauGeist]

Really good closeups, especially of the line-routing...

 

[ToughOmbre]

Good lookin' warbird Joe!

Thanks for the pics.

Would have loved to see the Tigercat see combat in WW II.

I would like to raise to a toast to the [origional] engineers who figured out all the hydraulics and mechanical connections to make the whole thing work!

I would rather toast the poor, often overlooked, ground crew who had to keep everything dry and tight.

Ditto, the mechanics are always the overlooked ones.
