The Benoist reproduction Kermit Weeks plans to fly across Tampa Bay January 1st is finally taking shape. What was just recently an assortment of wood and metal parts, is actually starting to look like a plane. The flight on January 1st celebrates the 100th anniversary of the birth of the commercial airlines industry on the same date back in 1914. Pretty cool.

Kermit posts updates on the Benoist, among other things aviation, regularly on his Facebook page. He has quite a collection.
I kind of like the quote in his about me section which states "when I grow up, i want to be me."Bill Garnett
