Christopher smiled to himself as he saw how enthusiastic Kat was, but now it was time to continue the tour.

He walked past an alcove and saw something that made him gasp. The rest of the group, who were in front, stopped and turned to look at him.

"Is that what I think it is?" Christopher pointed, a huge smile on his face,

"That," Virgil said as he brought the others over, "is Thunderbird 6"

"Even better than that!" Christopher exclaimed. "It's a vintage Tiger Moth!"

Brains turned to the other recruits. "We use it for rescues where the other craft can't go, and it can be landed on larger craft in flight, like the Skyship One"

Kat and Callie started asking questions. Virgil watched as Christopher walked around the plane, tentatively touching a bit of fuselage or a flap.

"My Great-Grandfather flew one of these," Christopher said. Everyone looked at him. "He used to train pilots in the Second World War to fly Spitfires and Hurricanes."

"A De Havilland DH82 Tiger Moth." Christopher smiled. "Twenty three feet long, wingspan of over twenty nine feet, maximum speed of 160 miles per hour."

He looked at everyone there. "Perfect aircraft."

"Noble sentiments Christopher," Brains said. "Shall we go?"

"Just one thing though," Christopher said as he rejoined the group, "When can I fly her?"

Virgil looked at Christopher then at Thunderbird 6. "We'll let you know".
