Beautiful job! I see you've got an O-320 in it. What is the prop length and pitch?

Hi Steve,

the Prop is 80x37 and was made for us by Culver Props.

Thanks for the compliments!

Thanks for some more great shots!
What does the pup handle like? Is she fairly docile, or, like any taildragger, does she demand full attention on landing?
Another question I have is, What is the powerplant of the Rumpler?
This place looks like a giant pile of fun!! I bet it's not rediculously expensive either.
I'm hoping to fly my Tiger Moth to Pennsylvania one of these years. This looks like the kind of place she'd fit right in!

Howdy Andy,

She is a very docile airplane in flight and not bad to land, Mildred wheel lands really well.
but will get sideways on you in a hurry if you don't plant the tail as soon as practical.

The Rumpler is powered with a Chipmunk Gypsy Major Mk 10 flipped upside down.
