Well the day is finally here. I'm headed up to pick up my new biplane with my instructor and longtime friend tomorrow morning! My instructor buddy is a great stick and rudder guy and I have no worries this time down this path. I'm looking forward to getting a good checkout and doing a few mods to it like maybe fuel injection (i have a NIB Rotec unit) and rear canopy. Thanks to the old owner as I think we both really got a great deal here...and that can't be said on most deals. I hope Rob sees this so he knows he's welcome to stay biplane current with my instructor anytime. Here is a few pics I took last weekend when I was up getting it ready for the flight home.

P.S. don't worry Starduster clan...I'm still actively restoring my Ranger SD2 and hope this helps get me ready for the next step in getting her airborne again!
