It looks like storm birds have updated their site. Wish they would post some more pictures of the build and flights. I just can’t wait to see one of these at a airshow.

those guys are doing an amazing job. The tour they gave us this summer was really comprehensive. When you look at the unfinished airplane you see all the details that the Germans incorporated in the original machines. Such details as sealed fuselage joints, and wooden gear door covers. You can't imagine how many pieces make these aircraft go, and the engineering needed to build them from scratch. They are worth every penny they are charging!

Soon Seattle is going to be enjoying formation flyovers comprised of a single and a dual cockpit Stormbird. 8) Who'd a thunk it! :wink:

It's going to make one heck of a color spread in Warbird Digest!
