Find aircraft background, systems descriptions and manuals for the aircraft you are researching. Each note keeps its source and version context close by.
Simulator manuals describe the developer’s implementation. Aircraft background is research-based; pilot accounts describe an individual’s experience. Coverage here is limited to the selected notes and linked resources, not the full contents of every manual.

Wheel and float configurations
The handbook identifies a Gipsy Major, fixed gear and no flaps. Wheeled aircraft have no steerable tailwheel in this description, while the float fit has its own equipment. The shared manual leaves the Modified model's precise engine and control differences open.

de Havilland DH.83 Fox Moth
The Fox Moth combined components from the Tiger Moth with a purpose-built wooden, plywood-covered fuselage for passenger flying. Designed in late 1931, its prototype flew on 29 January 1932. Gipsy Major power and folding wings accompanied the small transport layout.
Flight Replicas supplies standard, modified and float versions. Its handbook identifies direct stick controls and an elevator-trim lever; exact engine and control differences in the Modified model are not detailed by that shared handbook.
