Is anyone manufacturing new open cockpit aircraft? I'm aware of the
Waco Classic Aircraft Corporation, which makes new WACOs, but that's it. Is the WACO the only new built open cockpit aircraft around? -Charles Talleyrand |

Well, you could always build one of these: http://tinyurl.com/2tt5pc Plans-built 1932 Curtiss P6E Hawk replica fighter. 82% scale. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Well, if the orginal poster wanted to build, there are a power lot of options: Flybaby, peitenpol, baby ace, starduster, breezy, locomp, spacewalker, tuholer. And thats a list I came I came I came up with without working very hard. -- Frank Stutzman Bonanza N494B "Hula Girl" Boise, ID |

I'm looking for manufacturers who build planes for sale, and these planes have an open cockpit. I'm not asking about the homebuilt industry. |

The Pitts from Aviat can be had open cockpit, but it looks like you have to pre-order... |

There's a company in Alabama or Arkansas which essentially build Stearman
from scratch. They are a thing of beauty, and great fun to fly. |

I doubt Classic would consider it . . . but imagine a scaled LSA version of the YMF-5, perhaps behind the Rotax radial. That would be cool. |
