DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Tiger Moth is one of the major aviation success stories in the history of British aviation. Developed by Geoffrey de Havilland and flown for the first time on October 26 1931, the biplane became the most important elementary trainer used by Commonwealth forces. More than 1,000 Tiger Moths were delivered before WWII, and subsequently around 4,000 were built in the UK with an extra 2,000 being manufactured in Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Following the end of WWII, pilots could buy and modify a Tiger Moth for recreational use or agricultural crop spraying and use it relatively cheaply. This, combined with its popularity within the aero club movement, provided employment for the Tiger Moths until the late fifties when the more modern closed cockpit aircraft began to force them into retirement. This new edition provides a comprehensive account of the aircraft's origins and its development as a trainer of Commonwealth pilots in times of peace and war. It also looks at some of the other roles which this versatile little aeroplane performed such as a crop duster, glider tug, aerial advertiser, bomber, coastal patrol plane and aerial ambulance. Technical narrative and drawings, handling ability and performance as seen through the eyes of the pilots combine to make The Tiger Moth Story the most comprehensive book of the aircraft.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKMoths of the family Arctiidae, with their brilliant coloration, spectacular courtship rituals, and bizarre defenses, are wonders of the natural world. Unpalatable by virtue of secondary chemicals acquired from their hostplants, these moths advertise their defenses by their coloration and often mimic butterflies, wasps, bees, stinkbugs, and even cockroaches. They have ears with which they hear the echolocation of bats, and some answer with aposematic warnings, while some may jam the bats' sonar.This book, the first written on this fascinating group, documents how tiger moths and woolly bears-the adults and larvae of the Arctiidae-flourish in a world rife with predators, parasites, and competitors. The contributing authors' accounts, each written by a recognized expert in the field, weave together seminal studies on phylogeny and behavior, natural history, chemical communication, mate choice and sexual selection, chemical ecology, parasite-host relationships, self medication, animal orientation, predator-prey interactions, mimicry, adaptive coloration, speciation, biodiversity, and more.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKKitty has a secret: late one night, she overheard an unseen man describing a murder. And when she told the wrong person what she overheard, the killer began to focus on Kitty. Exploring the mountains and canyons of the Idaho back country with their friend Weevil while they look for tiger moths for Kitty's high-school senior project, Kitty and Gray begin to fall in love. Kitty's a self-described science girl. Gray writes songs, hoping to become a singer. Weevil, though wheelchair-bound, wants to become a music producer. Weevil and Gray realize that they have to keep Kitty safe. They know the killer is close, but they cannot discover his identity. At the same time, Gray's attorney cousin, Rylan, has met Kitty's teacher, Lina, hoping for a second chance at love. At midnight, a star burns atop Aldape Ridge. Tiger moth pupae sleep in Kitty's family garage, waiting for spring. In a small stable, Gray sings his heart out. In the middle of a nasty divorce case, Rylan and Lina stand up for a small boy with uncaring parents. On Halloween night, the Headless Horseman rides again. And in the canyon to the north, a killer in a pickup waits for the right moment to strike. Tiger Moth is a world rich with canyons and rivers, mountains and deserts, wildlife, skies bright with stars, many memorable characters, a brutal killer--and a tender love story.
