Interesting to note the last paragraph, in which they mention having a deadline they are aiming to meet, to have the aircraft completed by next summer (18 months from now), and that as a result of this these online updates will now be made only every six months instead, so that even more time can be devoted to the project. With regard to these latest updates, I would love to see that neat fuel control box in action!

Anyone have any guesses as to who will end up purchasing this masterpiece?

Probably a pretty short list.

It's one thing to have a restoration "pop up" out of the blue and stun the world like the FHC Shturmovik, but to have regular updates like those Tom has been gracious enough to provide (as well as the less-often but very enjoyable WarbirdRadio spots) really gets me excited! On the one hand it's sad to lose the monthly newsletter but when I stop to consider that it's so that the team focuses on the restoration....I'm all for it!

Bravo Tom, Katz and co - bring on July! :drink3:
