Addison Pemberton and Family in Spokane, WA have finished another restoration - the Waco did its first flight yesterday:

Just in - Waco EQC-6 N16591 takes wing. Test hop went without a hitch airplane rigged hands off, smooth and fast. With 3 1/2 years of complete restoration effort behind us we look forward to shaking down the airplane in prep for the trip to Blakesburg for Labor Day weekend. 22” and 1900 RPM yields 140 MPH I think there is another 20 MPH in her yet. All that is left is to add the blue trim to the wheel pants and brake fairings.
