Beautiful work! It reminds me a great deal of a Great Lakes or WACO-what's the engine and horsepower because it sure sounds healthy. :D :D

You'll have to replace that Stearman hat ! :lol:

Seriously. That looks and sounds amazing!

I'm about a month away from launching my Tigermoth restoration and I can totally relate to the feeling of peaking anticipation!

Play safe and have fun!!!!

Hi antique buffs,

Here is the link to the first flight video of our "Vintage Hatz" powered by a 9-cyl. Rotec radial. The aeroplane flies beautifully! Enjoy!
