Re: New racer to see this year!
This plane was for sale for a really long time at Courtesy. I for one am glad to not only see it flying again, but especially glad to see it at Stead!!Comment

Re: New racer to see this year!
I'm not sure if it is. Did LSFM sell theirs? John O'Conner owns this one and will be the race pilot this year providing all goes well at PRS.Originally posted by Big_Jim View PostComment

. No Howard won't be the pilot either, he's done.
If John O'Conner doesn't get qualed then I believe Nelson Ezell will fly and/or act as back up.
This one is the ex LSFM bird.Comment

Re: New racer to see this year!
Since we're talking about Bearcats, does anyone know the status of the Gulfhawk IV replica Bearcat that crashed a few years back? I had heard at one time it was being restored back to flying condition.Comment

Re: New racer to see this year!
Funny you mention the Gulfhawk, I was thinking of it as I read this. It was the sister ship to the ex LSFM Bearcat when they were used as wind machines at Kaman helicopters.Comment
