Akrobat II (reclaimed from
the barn rafters fall 2006)
Needed in the hanger is a plane suitable for windy days. A
suitable candidate was also stored in the barn rafters that has never
been built. A Gerry Graham Akrobat II, a sport flyer with a
thick high lift wing but without the square inches of a
floater.
The Akrobat was built during Jan & early Feb 2007 and is powered by
a YS-120 four stroke and has Ultracote covering.
