Wow, I didn't know any were flying after Pitcarin donated his to the EAA museum.

Great News!

Tilting at windmills........I guess there is something vaguely quixotic about that bird....

Seriously, way cool!

Does it fly out of Robbinsville, NJ?

No, the one Baldeagle is flying is just east of Dayton, OH. There was a PCA-2 (Miss Champion) at Robbinsville, it's in the EAA museum now and there is a sister ship to this PA-18 under currently under restoration at Robbinsville.

It was a quick trip, the weather looked good for Friday, so we jumped in the Swift on Friday morning and zipped out, then came home Saturday.

I'm guessing the other PA-18 will be done within the next 12 months.....possibly before the weather gets cold this winter but more likely in time for the warm weather next spring. It will be amazing to see the two together!
