Neal, looks like Ray Sherwood's airplane he was selling a little while ago, and yeah it's a Wilson wing.
Don't know the new owner, yet...

Paul

It is the Cassutt Ray was selling, but owned and built by Terry Allen in OKC. Stock Cassutt with a Wilson wing. My company, Premier Jet Aviation, owns both - we also own the former "Cool Runnings" #99 raced most recently by Dave Morss. That is the aircraft we are prepping for September.

Re: Some PRS stuff...

This racer was designed over 20 years ago by Robbie Grove. It's always been a very fast qualifier but less successful in actual races. Steve flew it a lot at PRS -- I think he wants to go faster...

An interesting comparison to the midwing Cassutts and Shoestrings, which have the cowling cheeks faired into a mid wing -- a low wing airplane changes this, and makes for interesting shapes.

Neal,

Terrific shots!!!!!! Not nearly as nice as yours, but it is a beautiful F-1 racer.

Re: Some PRS stuff...

Thanks for posting those Neal. That bird, and the Kelly design have always been favorites of mine.

Re: Some PRS stuff...

...and the Kelly design...

Re: Some PRS stuff...

The Kevin Kelly designed F1-D. If I had a picture handy I'd put it up. Maybe Goss or Neal can help out.

Re: Some PRS stuff...

Race5-
I know the Kelly design well, it sounded like you were getting them confused with Grove's.
FYI there is a gentleman doing an overhaul on one, that will hopefully race soon.

Re: Some PRS stuff...

There really were Dwelles all over the place at PRS.

Here are Ken and Tom Jr....

Re: Some PRS stuff...

And here's another one.

So with two racers and three pilots qualified, who's going to be on the course in September??

Neal

[Ken Dwelle]

Re: Some PRS stuff...

Thanks Neal, very nice photos! Thanks for posting them. As for your question... I have a confirmed seat! Those other two can fight for the other one!

I've always said that when we go flying, Ken flies #2 and Dad flies #7 and I'm happy to fly whichever is available.

TJ

Neil,

Do you have any of both a/c on the course together?

Re: Some PRS stuff...

Neal and Birgitta, as always, great shots! Glad you're still enjoying yourselves!

PM me when you get a chance or call...cell phone is still the same.

Re: Some PRS stuff...

Thanks to all for the comments -- I'm glad people are enjoying these.

Tom -- I didn't get anything exciting of the two airplanes together -- so Victor's seem so far to be what you have...

This shot by Birgitta.
