Here's a shots of wixer JCW's Bird BK N1116M at his strip in Canby. You can see his old NP-1 recently traded to the Tulsa Air Museum in one of his hangers. When Jeff finishes his Staggerwing and Eaglerock the Bird's getting a complete going through inc new fabric. She sure is fun to fly!

He wants a FM-2. I wish they still had their old BT-13 and SBD/A-24. |

I think that Bird use to fly out of Sikorsky Airport in Stratford, CT with Morgan Kaolian. Good to see it in good hands! Jerry |

They've had it a good 30 years. Possibly more. |

Steve, You and Jeff would get along well. He has a SNJ-4, Stearman, BK Bird, Reliant, American Eagle, Eaglerock A-1, Staggerwing, Champ and a pile of F6F parts he'd like to make fly someday. He restored all his a/c from junk with his dad and brother. Their A-24/SBD is in the AF Museum at W-P. |
