: Has there been any news in the last year or two on the Cut
: lass that was being restored to flying status? I believe
: it was in either Oregon or Washington. Thanks for any upda
: te.
I was there in April of 2001 and have pictures. If interested in pictures drop me an email and I will send you one. It was at the Seattle Museum of Flight restoration hangar and I had heard that the owner wanted to fly it but looking at the amount of work that had to be done it would be better (in my opinion) to put the $ in another airplane. The wings are made of an interesting composite of metal and wood and the wood was in need of replacing. If there is enough interest I can put several of my pictures on a web page of my visit to the restoration hangar.
