EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Tiger Moth aeroplane, registration number G-ABTB, in its element during the 1930s. The Tiger Moth was a versatile biplane used primarily for experimental and research purposes by STC (Standard Telephones and Cables Limited), a pioneering London-based technology company. During the thirties, STC was at the forefront of international communication technology, specializing in telephones and cables. The company's commitment to innovation extended beyond telecommunications, as evidenced by their involvement with aviation. The Tiger Moth served as an essential tool in their research and development efforts, contributing significantly to the advancement of communication equipment and technology. The Tiger Moth biplane, with its distinctive open cockpit and two wings, was a common sight in the skies during this era. Its robust design and versatility made it an ideal choice for various applications, including aerial photography, surveying, and even pilot training. In the context of STC's research, the Tiger Moth was likely used to test new communication equipment, such as radios, in flight. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the synergy between technology, business, and aviation during the 1930s. The Tiger Moth, registration number G-ABTB, stands as a testament to STC's pioneering spirit and their relentless pursuit of innovation, pushing the boundaries of communication technology and aviation capabilities.
