Thorp T-18. Recently purchased from Ed Ullrich EAA Chapter 26. It hasn't flown in 9 years. After 4 days work, it's seen here taxiing under it's own power.

First TAXI test. Everything went well. The engine ran perfectly, and the ground handling of the RV-8 was great.

Don't feel too bad for the Cruisemaster, it's living here now. Marilyn and I have been chipping away at this hangar & home project for the last 10 years. Well at least we got the hangar....

Lots of work to go inside the fuselage. Here is the flap motor and bellcrank assembly. I've fabricated the push rods and fit the flaps...now to enlarge the push rod hole in the fuse, and hook it all up, adjust it and fit the fillet fairings.

One small step, but the plastic sheeting is off the canopy, and gives a strong impression of a real airplane.

The wings went back on quickly. I started hooking up the flight controls, and Marilyn started polishing.

The Cruisemaster gets the boot!! The wings are brought up to the hangar the day after the fuselage was squeezed in. Now the Bellanca goes to it's new hangar, and the wings go on the RV-8.
