Title: New Sport Goodyear
Post by: bill bischoff on May 16, 2018, 10:44:28 PM

Here's a Margaret June Sportsman Goodyear I just finished working on. It features a paint scheme that's very similar to "Yellow Peril", a Formula 1 "super Cassutt" previously flown by astronaut "Hoot" Gibson. The plane was originally built by David Clark of Wichita. It was primed and almost ready for paint when I got it. Not being one to leave well enough alone, I sanded on it sporadically for a year before painting it. It's about to go to its new home, and hopefully it'll fly in our contest next month.

It's Klasskote's Monokote matching Cub Yellow, over a solid white base.
