Pitts Pedal Plane almost finished

The Pitts Pedal plane that I’ve been working on for a year and half is nearing completion. I just need to paint the wheel pants and I’ll be done! This WILL be at the upcoming September Pancake Breakfast. I won’t delay again.

I need to paint the wheel pants and add the pedals

Updated Photo. Almost done!

Not my plane, but what is should look like

Here are the wheel pants after being carved and sanded...awaiting paint.

    I added 2 more photos of the plane with the top wing installed and the wheel pants in place. I still need to paint the wheel pants red with the 2 white stripes, and add the square pedals (they install on the pedal crank in an interesting fashion).

    IT WILL be ready for the pancake breakfast.

    Also, I will be bringing a “kit” to set beside it FOR SALE. It’s really a partially completed Pitts Pedal plane built from the same set of plans by my neighbor. We “were” building them together. He however, gave up after the first several months. The fuselage is built, all parts cut out. And just about everything needed to complete. I will sell it with a brand new set of plans for anyone who wants a running start on building one.

    Email me if you are interested jeff(at)ereksonfamily.org
