I love the Staggerwing such a beautiful aircraft. If I was going to buy an aircraft this would be on the list.

Very nice Gavin. Did I read somewhere (maybe facebook?) that a NZ Staggerwing got a new glass cockpit installed? Anyone seen any pics of this?
Edit: Actually it was MRC Aviation I read about it, and it is this plane. Don't suppose you got any cockpit pics Gavin? biggrin.gif

Edit: Missed Paul's post about the cockpit tongue.gif

Great work Gavin, it looks like you were really enjoying yourself with these. I'm experiencing slight twinges of jealousy. smile.gif
