This cute little moth had a wingspan of only 1 cm (0.4 inches). ID uncertain - Rice Leaf Roller moth, Crambidae, Spilomelinae (Cnaphalocrocis medinalis)?? Looks like he has a hollow tail.

Haha, that's what his hollow tail is about then - jet propulsion. And those goggle eyes he has (3rd photo): just like some kind of fighter pilot... :-)
Excellent shots. Holds its wings like a hang-glider. Maybe jet propelled.
