The plan is for someone to fly the N-28 to Oshkosh and for it to be
displayed at the Airdrome Aeroplanes exhibit in the Replica Warbirds area.
Answering Kyle: Ray reports that's it's a sweet bird. It climbs great
and handles well. It is a replica and not aerobatic. It does not
appear to be very demanding taildragger. Cruise is a bit slower than
expected and trim adjustments are being studied.

My buddy Ray Jarvis has completed and flown his Airdrome Aeroplanes
Replica Nieuport 28. It's full scale and is powered by a 9-cylinder 150
hp Rotec Radial engine.
Its debut was the Gardner KS Gathering of Eagles last weekend.
I had a ball shooting aerial photos from the front seat of a Champ.

Beautiful plane
See ya
