This is a great site, and they have a great project. Even though very little of "Marion" is actually from "Marion", they seem to have incorporated a great deal of original equipment and framework into the aircraft. I am curious though, having been to this website several times in the past, it seem not to have been updated for over a year. In one of the sections they say they are on track for first flight in April, 2002... I guess that means any day now. Anyone know more about the current status of this project?
