Johnney O?
« on: July 10, 2012, 07:29:06 PM »
Anyone know a Polish guy from the north east that was called Johnney O?

I asked Windy but he does not remember his last name.

I have one of his old planes and was just wondering about the history of plane and pilot.

Twin or triple fins, radial cowl, razorback? There were some pictures posted on here, but apparently I didn't save them to my confuser. Maybe a search would work...but maybe not. They were nicely made, but I didn't particularly like the looks, altho twin fins, radial cowls, and razorbacks are almost as appealing to me as a bag of chocolate chip cookies.   H^^ Steve

In 1944 18-20 year old's stormed beaches, and parachuted behind enemy lines to almost certain death.  In 2015 18-20 year old's need safe zones so people don't hurt their feelings.

It's a single fin razor back.
Just need the guys last name.
I would post a picture of the plane but I'm out of tone and all I have is my iPhone.
