Not exactly a warbird.....but

This weekend I had the pleasure to fly in a Bellanca Super Vicking.

Picture as a reference only.

310 HP, retracks, GPS, autopilot, etc......

Quite a performer for a wood & fabric bird.

Whew, had to get this off my chest :D

C'étais rigolo.

Should that surprise you? Wood is an excellent aircraft building material.

Just make sure all the termites continue to hold hands!
