History of the D.H.60C Cirrus Moth Aircraft

The De Havilland D.H.60C Cirrus Moth was one of the most popular British light aircraft of the interwar period. Designed in England and first flown in 1925, it quickly gained popularity not only in the British Isles but also abroad. The aircraft was used for training, sporting, communication, and demonstration flights. The D.H.60C version was an improved variant of the original model, featuring a reinforced structure and a better de Havilland Cirrus engine. This type of aircraft was widely operated by civil flying schools, aero clubs, and the air forces of Great Britain and many Commonwealth countries, including Australia, Canada, and New Zealand. The D.H.60C Cirrus Moth was mainly in service from 1925 to 1935, although many examples remained in operation much longer.
