Here is a video of some of the restoration work and test flights of a beautifully restored 1929 Bellanca Pacemaker CH-300. This airplane was first used in Hawaii by Inter Island Airways (now Hawaiian Airlines) from 1929 to 1932. It then was sold and spent most of it's career in Alaska on floats.

This plane was rebuilt from almost nothing to flying in a few months. The people who did the work were artisans of the first order.
