Had some spare time on my trip, and brought some books from my aviation library. Been more cancel, less fly lately!
Had a nice write up on early homebuilts, and a portion devoted to the Starduster. Posting a couple pics, I think there are great!
Both are Acroduster One shots. The black and white one Is great, with Jim Osborne flying around open pit with his glasses on and hair blowing around- just having a ball most likely!
I did notice, that it appears that there is no tail bracing in the form of wires or struts. It also looks like the horizontal has a airfoil shape of some sort? The early home building days really intrigue me.
