Hiya, well I have watched this a while, and it appears to be quite active, which ties in with me getting back into building, so I thought I should join.
Small intro,
I am a Canadian, west coast, but living in Dubai the last 5 years.
I have owned a few Pitts, a couple S1, an Eagle, and a few monoplanes. I built Jim LeRoys first set of wings.
I also started the company which became Raven Aircraft, although I have not been involved directly for many years. We called it Precision at the time. I am pretty happy to see where it has gone though.
I raced a Pitts at Reno, great fun! and built a pretty radical 2 seat Pitts style machine. I have basically been out of competition and airshow aerobatics now for 10 years, time to get back in!
I like the Model 12, alot, and so far its top of my list to get building again, but I am still up in the air regards the engine....
Living in Dubai, building may be a challenge,
I am amazed at the expertise on this forum, apparently this the place for performance biplane guys to be!
Cheers,
Pete
