Default Epps 1907 monoplane at NBAA 2007

wright1902glider wrote in
ps.com:

According to the NBAA website, there will be a reproduction Epps 1907
monoplane hanging in the enterance hall of the Georgia World Congress
Center for the NBAA 2007. In fact, it should be there right now.

Anyone going to, or at, NBAA 2007 in Atlanta? Anyone near Atlanta?
Can you get me a photo or better yet, some details of who built it and
possibly contact info if thats available? I've already emailed the
contact person at Epps aviation.

Those of you who know me already know that I've discussed this
aircraft several times on this group and have photos of it on my
walls. Its been on my build-list for 12 years. I'd fly out to Atlanta
myself just to see it, but I've got work obligations keeping me in
CO.

Any help and/or info will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

I was quite interested in his liegth biplane of the early thirties and did
some research on it with a view to maybe building it and so came across a
good bit of material on the 07 airpane as a result. I sem to recall seeing
a site that was dedicated to it's construction and I think it was Geroge
Epps' grandson building or masterminding the replica.

I didn't save anything but I'll have a look.
