A place where restoration project-type threads can go to avoid falling off the main page in the WIX hangar. Feel free to start threads on Restoration projects and/or warbird maintenance here. Named in memoriam for Gary Austin, a good friend of the site and known as RetroAviation here. He will be sorely missed.

Anyone know where to find a BT-13A tailwheel boot or a boot pattern?
Thanks!

There's a guy who sells BT-13 stuff on barnstormers. Maybe try Califirnia Airframe.

SkipInge,
West Coast Wings in Ukiah, Ca. They are rebuilding four BT-13's. A friend of mine saw the planes the other day. He said they look better than factory new. They might have a pattern, or two. Ask for, Nick.
Phone number: (707) 462-6882.

Jim,
Thanks for the info. Having the number helps a lot! I'll call them Monday!
Thank you!

Nick at West Coast Wings said that he had a pattern. Gary at American Aero Services said that he can put one together with the pattern so I think I can get something workerd out! Just getting a good lead was half the battle! Thanks Jim!
