One can drop $500K on a new Waco without much trouble, they are building a beautiful "old" aircraft. The friend/client that bought the yacht I posted a few pages back bought one. He also owns a Phenom 300, the most beautiful Ford Tri-Motor restoration in the world, and a new Bell 429, pretty nice stable of aircraft. He flies them all himself, he is a trip!
Thanks, I just saw a post it took 300 yards of carbon to make the custom doghouse/scoop for Bardahl. It is actually what they believe is an improvement over the Voodoo design. Same guy did both of them.

There is a property near me that the farmer allows people to fly there remote planes on weekends. I would love this!

Dan
Both super processing Bill! Darn those planes are HUGE!! I am on the "flyway" into both Dulles and BWI. These monsters are "visiting" daily. I love it! Then the flyway to Dover AFB by those monster C-5's and C-17's make their bi-weekly trips up from FT Benning/Robbins and the house trembles!!! To far to shoot anything worth while. Nuts!

Capping off a 20 hour day as I post this, but a productive one......................
You have a beautiful property Jim!
Glad my "best bud" is up to helping!
Had many 20 hours day while working. Not pleasant to the body or mind!
Again...well done!
Dan
After not getting to see this fly at Oshkosh, this was the airplane I needed to nail a shot of at the last Reno. From pylon 2, with Bernie Vasquez at the controls on an exhibition pass.

Thanks Dan! I was at the sod farm at 7:30 this morning and it's been non-stop since then. JIII had school pix early but made bee line for our house as soon as those were done. He never left my side, still right here. He's pretty exhausted, but he should be, he worked like a pro. We put down over 6,000# of St. Augustine sod today and it looks great! Next project is landscape rock, I may farm that out.........
Ah youth Jim! A handsome young man!
Sod is a extravagance around here this year. The sod farms were burnt to a crisp with this summers excessive heat and no rain.
Love my buddy's gloves!
Stay safe!
Dan
I've been waiting to put that sod down for that very reason Dan. Prices are up, thanks Bidenomics, but the sod comes from the Gulf Coast and the two pallets we put down were very green and healthy. I'm soaking it as we speak. JIII is in charge of hand watering and he's on it.
