A couple Summers ago I watched FHC's March Field JN-4D fly @ KPAE. My lasting impressions were 'It's so slow, no wonder early pilots in WW1 threw bricks at each other' and that it looked like a clumsy bird fluttering the length of the airfield. It's more wind sensitive than the Fi-156 STORCH is. Brave folks in fragile containers-

Great job you guys. Seems just yesterday when you all started on it. The markings are very cool. Most people have no idea what Candler field was and is now. :drink3:
