To most people, the sky is the limit. To aviators, the sky is home.

1964 HA-200A Saeta Jet: The last complete design of the famous Willy Messerschmitt to be put into production. Built by Hispano Aviacion of Spain as an advanced fighter trainer/attack aircraft powered by twin Turbo Meca Marbor II jet engines. 300 knots TAS with service ceiling of 39,000 ft. A real "blast" to fly!

1943 Boeing Stearman E75 N2S-5. Painted in the original style it was when delivered to the Navy in 1943. Stationed outside of Memphis during the war. I flew it home from North Carolina in May '05. Knowing that almost every pilot in WWII learned to fly in one of these makes it a privilege to own and fly. Of course you never really own one of these beautiful machines, but are a temporary stuart of them regardless of how much you pay.

1940 J3 Cub with a Continental C-85 at home base. Flew it all the way back from Iowa several winters ago when is was only 2 deg. F. Nothing like a Cub. In the background is the trusty old PA22-108 Colt.

What I hope the 1948 Stinson 108-3 Flying Station Wagon project will look like some day.
