Leni, Finally made it over to my hanger today. Took a few pictures for you.

Ahhhhh, I see now grass hopper. Thank you sir! The brackets look easy enough to make. Hmmm... mod IV kf wing with separate flaps n ailerons stretched to about 34'... bet that would make a nice float plane!

Interesting  to see how they did that. I also took some pictures at Oshkosh. Not quite as good, but here is what I took.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have them in a lot higher resolution if you need more detail.

That guy flew the crap out of that little plane!

I know that there are a lot of cable control systems that have been flying for years - but after breaking a flap cable on final over the threshold, I don't want any more to do with them. Guess you have to inspect them closer.

The cables in the photos look heavier than the Cessna cables - or maybe I am just seeing them that way.

The SkyRaider that was flying at Oshkosh every day was silver and had a 503 with no cowling. It has been for sale on Barnstormers.
