A beautiful aeroplane you have created there! Sounds good too.

Beautiful work! It reminds me a great deal of a Great Lakes or WACO-what's the engine and horsepower because it sure sounds healthy.

Way to go Hans! Looks and sounds great!

You'll have to replace that Stearman hat !

Seriously. That looks and sounds amazing!

I'm about a month away from launching my Tigermoth restoration and I can totally relate to the feeling of peaking anticipation!

Play safe and have fun!!!!
