I bet it's quite a sight to see. What hp? The one at Golden Age has an 80 hp LeRhone, which of course is under sized, but it flies beautifully with it. Turns are unbelievably tight.

Look up the thread by US185Damiani about the Golden Age Air Museum reproduction. They did a very authentic version and his posts have tons of photos. I saved some to help me with my own VK model. ...
