Mike Araldi also sent us some photos from Harry Stenger's shop in Bartow, FL, where Harry is rebuilding an Inland Sport W-500. Harry is currently rebuilding the Inland's Warner 145 engine and expects to be flying in 4 to 6 months.

Andrew Andraka is beginning the restoration of an American Eaglet project:

I am currently embarking on the restoration of a 1931 B-31 American Eaglet. I acquired the aircraft from storage this past year. The aircraft was last restored in 1987 but flew very few hours before being donated to a military aviation museum. I acquired it from that museum after it sat in storage for several years and currently work on it with my partner (we are both aerospace engineering students and pilots). I am currently looking for leads on replacing the engine block for the Eaglet. It has a Szekely 45 hp, 3 cylinder engine with a dime size hole in the block. I was hoping you might be able to share our project and help us drum up leads on Szekely engine parts and American Eaglet parts (and jigs!). Our hope is to return NC597Y to the air in the near future. Thank you!

The Florida Antique Biplane Associations wraps up their season with the May 2013 newsletter. Lots of fly-in reports here.

Jason Fortenbacher at Fight2Fly Photography posted a video of flying action from the Cawley's South Prairie Fly-In held last weekend. This is the fly-in where we recently saw pics of Jim Moss' Gee Bee Q.E.D. replica under construction. The fly-in is open to all but there's a heavy concentration of antiques and classics, reflected in this video.

Since registration opened for the 2013 Fly-In on Monday we've already gotten several online registrations. Postings of photos and names of folks who are planning to attend has been popular in past years, so we're continuing the tradition. Please send us a photo via email along with your registration and we'll add yours!

John Cuny is working on a Seabee project - John says:

The airplane is a 1946 Republic Seabee. It has been through a extensive restoration. It will be powered by a IGSO-480 Supercharged Lycoming. It's in Brian VanWagnen's shop in Jackson, Michigan. I have owned this airplane for the last 30 years and has taken me to lots of interesting places. Looking forward to its first flight again this summer. John Cuny
