  • Clipwing Resources Compiled

    Tribe-
    I'm in the process of compiling photos, drawings, videos, Design Mods etc. into one location so it is available to anyone building one. I have a little video of Duane Cole, Randy Henderson, and Kent Pietch but would love to add more. Anything you may have available is very much appreciated. I can take photos, VHS, jpg files etc. and plan to put them on a website.

    Great idea, I'll be looking forward to it. Sorry I don't have anything to contribute at the moment.

      Eric:

      I have several pictures of Randy Henderson's plane if you need any....

      I've also got some of Leisa Marie, a Swick T I beleve with 180 Lycoming.

      Just let me know if you can use them.

      Hope all is well with you. Are you going to make Sun and Fun this spring?

      Cheers,

            I believe he has moved on. I THINK he sold his Taylorcraft Stuff. Shame he is a nice guy and only a state away.

              If your talkin about Acroeric he is still around. He still has a few t-craft parts and last time I talked to him(week before Xmas) he was about to go look at another Clipped wing somewhere. He has also been doing some stuff with a Pitts or two.

                  Hey Guys! I'm still around. I have been busy with my Pitts, getting married, and trying to do some covering work here and there. I am very much still a huge Tcraft fan. In fact- if the weather holds this weekend I will have a new to me clipwing in my hangar! I'll compete this year in it in local IAC contests.

                  I have compiled a pretty large assortment of drawings and mods- most of which are my own designs for the Clipwing. I am doing some custom wing building and covering work and really enjoying it. I've learned so much thanks to this fine group of folks.

                  I also have a few videos of Duane Cole that Paul Poberezny sent me several months ago from the EAA Archives. If anyone has any old footage please send it to me. I would love to put this together finally.
