1. Title: "Timeless Grace: The de Havilland DH60 Moth, G-EBQJ" 2.. The de Havilland DH60 Moth, registered as G-EBQJ, is a classic biplane that embodies the spirit of aviation's golden age. This iconic aircraft, manufactured by de Havilland Aircraft Company in the 1930s, is a testament to the ingenuity and innovation that characterized the early days of aviation. The DH60 Moth is a two-seat, open-cockpit biplane with a fabric-covered wooden fuselage and wings. Its distinctive rounded fuselage and sleek lines make it an instantly recognizable and beloved aircraft among aviation enthusiasts. Powered by a de Havilland Gipsy III engine, the Moth is known for its agility and versatility, making it a popular choice for both recreational flying and aerobatic displays. G-EBQJ, in particular, has an interesting history. It was originally delivered to the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1934 and later sold to a private owner in the United Kingdom in 1951. Over the years, it underwent various restorations and modifications, including the installation of a new engine and the addition of a covered cockpit. Today, G-EBQJ is a cherished part of the historic aircraft collection at the Shuttleworth Collection in Old Warden, England, where it continues to thrill audiences with its graceful flights and captivating presence. The de Havilland DH60 Moth, G-EBQJ, is a living reminder of the past, a symbol of the passion and excitement that has fueled aviation for nearly a century. Its timeless design and enduring appeal make it a true aviation icon.
