Great video! How is maintenance & finding replacement parts? What would happen if you found wood rot? Could you get it repaired?

A properly rated pilot could still depart IFR, just can’t land IFR, correct?

What a find, as a boy growing up in San Antonio and visiting stinson field on my bicycle, I remember a hanger with 3 of these kit planes being built. I talked with the guy that was building them on several occasions, definitely my favorite. Fred French

Nice production Chris! Glad to see you’re featuring really special aircraft. The Whitman is one of Jim Rust’s (of Whirlwind Propellers) favorites. That speaks well to the design.

It's beautiful, but I can do without the music. The sound of waves crashing is more relaxing to me.

Glad you enjoyed it. Music is always a balance and I appreciate your feedback. Duly noted for the next one.

I never met Kit, but know the plane from so long ago when it shared a hangar at UC Davis with a friend of mine. It is an absolute work of art. I'm very pleased to see it wound up in good hands. Thanks for sharing this video.

My wife was in love with this beautiful bird and used to tease Kit about selling it to her. It still looks fantastic, just like we remember it. Two votes for a chat with Kit.

I am fortunate enough to fly along side Kit in our 1946 Luscombe 8as out of University airport, Davis, CA. We modestly call ourselves the Davis Luscombe club. 2 airplanes, 4 people and 4 hats. Kit is a meticulous builder, mechanic and excellent pilot and friend! I do hope he’ll be on KZbin soon.

An interview with Kit would be good. Got my A&P at sac city 86-88 and had Kit as an instructor. I'll have to dig out the list of classmates as that was a hella long time ago. ✌️

+1 on the interview with Kit-my friend was in the program and learned from him, I recall my friend telling me about the mustang that he built and how perfect it was

@user-ih8bh3ct4r 4 ай бұрын
Not exactly, but similar enough to be called a midget mustang. The wings and tail shapes are similar and the canopy looks like a "C" model P-51

This MM1 has always been my favorite. I remember the article in Sport Aviation shortly after it was built. It is absolutely beautiful! I would love to hear more about it's construction from Mr. Sodergren.

I will be flying out of Woodland in an Air Command in about two weeks. Wrapping up some parts for sky-wheels. I’ll be flying in Petaluma Thursday, then when I finish up the testing and run ups, I’ll be at Watts/WDLD.

Yes. Build your dream. house. And look out of your window. At your person s house next door looking at you. There is nothing left. Of its buity. It’s gone used up. I was there when all there was was street lights and paved roads. And now all there is is houses and street light and side walks. How do you like it now. Not. Nothing. Used up. Money. Money. Money.
