Re: Guess what flew today

Several? years ago after seeing an article about Shockwave in Air Classics I took Aa 1/72 scale model of a T6 and modified it into an unlimited air racer with larger engine, modified canopy, 3 bladed prop similar to the Bear's, etc. Lost a few parts here and there through a couple of moves, I'll see if I can find it again and post some pics

Re: Guess what flew today

I am sorry I do not have any interior shots, all of these pictures were sent to me by a bystander watching us do our thing last week. The instrument panel and cockpit are all very clean and top notch. Unfortunately after Keith's death we were unsure of some of the systems installed and through trial and error some are (for now) labeled with tape instead of placards. The plan is to fly again sometime the first of next week and I will try to be there and get some more shots.
Thanks again to everyone who looked and all the great comets.

Re: Guess what flew today

I seem to remember the late Keith Shell had a P-51 project also. Anyone know what happened to it?

Re: Guess what flew today

These are the last pictures the guy watching us took of the second flight landing. In the last picture you can see the new rounded fuselage panels.

Re: Guess what flew today

This thing is cool as heck! The fact that you are operating from a grass runway just adds to the attraction. Keep up the good work, a lot of folks out here can't wait to see it in person.
