As bright as that is, we should be able to see it as you fly the pattern... y1 y1 y1 y1

Congratulations that is sweet next time I'm at your contest I want a ride.
-
Joe, it looks great. Now watch out for those 5 foot bottoms.
-
Oh how very cool Joe; I saw Art Sholl do ribbon pickups with his inverted. Highly modified though.
-
I knew Harold Krier, who was the first to modify the Chip and later on add more HP.
Congrats to Joe.. I hope the FAA doesn't give him too much grief changing the registration to the U.S.
-
Nice one Joe!
Congratulations!
Funny looking markings though.
-
Holy cow! What a beauty. Where were those photos taken? Florida? I've only seen trees like those around here inside of malls in preserved condition.

Hey Joe...Aren't you getting a little carried away with this "Old Time Ignition Stuff"... LL~ LL~ LL~

What I think he needs to do is build a Jim Van Loo chipmunk for classic and paint it like that one. Of coarse take pictures too.
-
Thanks guys for the good wishes. Mataining a 60 year old aircraft is a little daughting but you really don't own them you just are a care taker. They fly so nice to fly ,a real treat. Yes the changing of registration is trouble but it is done every day. Looking foward to flying the plane.
-
Good for you, Joe! That's fantastic!!!
-
What a superb looking airplane! Congrats to you, Joe! (HOW did you ever talk Colleen into THAT one???)
-
Very neat, Joe! Hope to see you in El Dorado in a few weeks.
-
WOW!!!
-
Joe
Is that your Documentation for an upcoming CL Scale model?

-
Very cool, and IC too! ;D
-
What's under the cowl? Ranger L-440?
Pretty Aircraft. Hope the US Reg. process isn't to much of a pain.
Any AD's pending?
It's a beauty Joe! Congrats.

Doug the engine is a Gypsy Major. It all very original aircraft.
-
I see you have a Harley part around it. Oil catch pan.
-
Didn't know TruTurn made spinners that size. I see you are using an APC reverse rotation prop, so it must be electric.
-
Joe,
Are you going to keep the RAF paint scheme, or will you repaint the airplane. (Please not green)
-
No Tom it will remain just as you see it. What you see is how it was sixty years ago.
-
I bet it will be exciting to fly inverted five foot off the ground. LL~

Does the Gypsy Major use Lucas electrics?

Does the Gypsy Major use Lucas electrics?
The prince of darkness? Lets hope not.

Joe,
Interesting how, like model airplanes, owners of aircraft gravitate towards their likes and interest.
My last aircraft was a Lake LA4-200T.
Real difference in choice.
Your new aircraft, she looks like a sweetheart and I'm sure she now has a good home.
Enjoy your aircraft.
Best of luck!

AKA, "Dripsy Major". ;D

Must be electric.......I note the "pusher" prop! S?P

Exactly what I was thinking. Yikes!
-
I have a 71 Ford tractor with all Lucas electrics and just replaced the original generator. Not all that bad..
-
The prince of darkness? Lets hope not.
The British drink warm beer because Lucas makes the refrigerators.
-
The prince of darkness? Lets hope not.
I've heard this....personally, I know Lucas as the God of Fire...
-
Pretty airplane, Joe. I bet you two are glad you decided to buy it! Stockers really fly light and well, I'm told.
DeHavilland built some really nice airplanes.
Any British airplane or car owners rolling their eyes about the Lucas jokes yet?
Chris...
-
Uhh, Joe, did you check to see if your P-51 D fit in the "trunk" before you bought it?
-
WOW!!! I love it!!!

Hi Joe,
Perhaps you need one of these?

Super Joe what do I have to do to get a ride? Has Colleen been up in it yet? Here is a thought, put a set of lead outs on the left wing and bring it VSC next year. Ya that's the ticket! Take care buddy. y1

Aerobatics in a Chipmunk is a fine way to spend the afternoon.........or morning.My first Chipmunk Cheezy grin was in 1978.Have fun Joe!!!! In case you had'nt noticed there is a nice airstrip just south of the L-Pad in Muncie...........
