I have seen several around Florida -- there used to be three or four
parked at Flagler County, but I don't recall seeing them recently.

The plane is apparently a bit of a stone, cruising at only 140 or so
MPH, on 270 hp.

It reminds me of a Navion -- both on performance and looks. It should be
a cheap warbird, though.

Ah yes, Thank you so much.
I knew it reminded me of something but I just couldn't think of the Ryan
Navion.
I hate it when the brain just won't make the link that you know is in there
somewhere.
