Just thought I'd step up and say hi. Just purchased a Skybolt after selling my Cessna 140.I have been lurking the forum for a while reading all the info I can about the Starduster Too and the Skybolt. I was just about to buy the Starduster Too when a Skybolt popped up for sale closer to home and a little cheaper. The Skybolt needs some cleanup and a few items addressed so I have it tore down now for those issues and a fresh annual.I hope to have it back up and going in a couple weeks.This is my first biplane after owning a Cherokee 140 and a Cessna 140. I have always loved biplanes and being close to Bartlesville have been to the biplane fly-in several times and even got a flight in a Stearman and Starduster Too years ago.Thanks for all the help and info so far. I hope to continue to learn more about these planes and get out and fly the heck out of it when I can!
