Some may say fly....some may say not fly.

I think that they fly so far and between and.....

Soooo much consideration is taken for a flight....

I can only say thank you :-)

I saw it at Chino in 2000, but it was also a real treat to see it flying a Duxford ten years ago... Thank you PoF!

Thought I saw it fly at Chino but can't have done as it was grounded...

In vintage terms, I think it is one of the more surprising airframes that we still see flying in 2024. Great job Planes of Fame!

I love the Peashooter - one of my all-time favorites. Seeing one fly someday is a bucket list item for me. I am hoping to go to the Santa Maria airshow that POF is involved with in the next few years. Maybe the P-26 will make an appearance. If not, I will be following the Legend Flyers projects closely and hoping for an Oshkosh appearance from one of those.

I’d like to see the P-12 fly, too.

That one will need the wooden wings rebuilt I'm told.
