Hi Norm,
I didn't make it to the Texas State Stunt Championships to shoot this year, but Bob Organ took alot of pixs to soon be posted. I think Dee may have some too. There is a blurb on the brotherhood site about it with partial finishes posted (Ringmasters ruled the event with the 526 and 576 Ringmasters!) go to:

I think its the same contest Doc. It was held at Richard Olivers place instead of Scobee field.

Thanks Richard the only thing I added to the plane is the landing gear is attached to the fuse it should have been attached to the wing.

Thanks Joe.  That one looks different than his other Caudrons.  Is it me or is it a new profile?

Matt I have seen several of his planes but don't know for sure what the differences are.

I was reading his article on the Caudron in SN this morning and, from what I can see comparing that one from the plans, the rudder shape is more "roundish"

That is Roger Olson's Caudron.  Frank broke the landing gear on his during practice and flew his Gypsy 46 in PAMPA Stunt on Sunday.  I guess Roger just tweaked the rudder shape a bit.
