Good Evening all,
As some of you may know I recently aquired a 1931 American Lincoln Eaglet in remarkable condition. The project had been in storage since 1994 and suffered from some hanger rash and moving damage. Currently the Eaglet is half way home pending reworking the garage/ workshop. According to the log books it was last restored in 1987 with new wings having been build, fuselage tubes replaced, and a tail wheel mounted. It is rumored that it flew in the 1990's but the logs I have do not reflect this. I do have registrations dating from 1938 up to the War and then again in 1945 to the early 1950's. The airplane still has its orginal 45 hp 3 cylinder Szekely engine which was also rebuilt in 1987.
