Have read this guys name in a couple of articles. Thats a lot of machine to horse around the sky. Looks like a round motored Lucombe. Not sure which model that would be!

That is the one of the few Luscombe Model 4's predecessor to the Model 8 power was a 90 Hp Warner otherwise known as the Luscombe 90
built in the same vein with the same type of construction of the 8 series.

They used to build the round engine Luscombs in Kansas City, before Don L. moved east...to this day, you can still see the round engine heritage in the later built Luscombs....if you get a chance to see under the cowling, the firewalls are all round...easily convertable back to a round motor....Isn't that the same Johnson that used to loop the tri-motor...at night...with fireworks going off all around him???
