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. 



Extended Remarks on the Akrobat


The plane is finished and awaiting a couple of weeks cure on the cowl and wheel pant paint.  Here it is on it's storage rack.
