A few pics from the Abilene KS. airport flyin today. Never know what you are going to find, and these were the most interesting to me. Notice the undercamber on the 1929 Waco.

I'm tempted Doc. I really like old biplanes. My first controline bipe was the Flying Fool. The second one was the Over Easy. And then two Bislobs. I have several R/C bipes. So, maybe it is time for another C/L bipe. I sure like the lines of this old Waco. I keep looking at the plans of Don Hutchinson's Stearman, which I really like also. So many planes, so little time. The Waco is hangered about 13 miles from me, so I could get some pretty good detail for a scale job.

Get Don to draw you up a set of plans for the Waco.  I wouldn't think you have to change the Stearman that much but, what do I know.   H^^
