Boy, sometime you do meet the nicest of people.
They actually drove up to their little shop and opened it for me at 6:00 PM to let me pay a visit.
They level of craftsmanship on this restoration is very, very impressive. Most of the AC will be newly manufactured of course, but it will be to extremely exact standards.
Most people when seeing an airframe will tell you have an aircraft.........Not the case. Most people do not realize all the internal part needed to make an aircraft.
Just look at White One web site and you will se what I mean. These guys have spent an incredible amount of time and money doing new cast & stamping molds to replicate all the internal parts.
They even had a small batch of tires newly manufactured to original standard. NOS will not cut it on a flying machine.
Do stop over when there. It is a block away from Tom Reilly's place in Kissimmee, FL
