Pietenpol C-IBBM

Post by BBM »

Originally started by Carl Vought in 2006 but unfortunately he passed before completion.
In 2016 ,I picked up the aircraft in Tennessee and continued where Carl left off .
I am building it as faithfully to the plans a possible except opting to the more practical tailwheel than using a skid .
Currently in assembly stage and waiting for a Model A that is being built . ( I also would like to find a second Model A already converted if anyone has one )
