Any new developments on the R51?

I think EAA/Tanfo should consider a de-girlyfied version akin to the S&W 3913NL

Not a bad idea! We can start working on a name for it.

I don't think "Pavona Cross-Dresser" will be a winner. But keeping with Italian city names (which Pavona is) my vote is for "Taranto". It sounds manly in an Italian sense and helps celebrate the famous Royal Navy fliers who raided the place. That the raid gave the Japanese hope for the idea of raiding Pearl Harbor is something we can overlook.

Biplanes to Glory!

As an aside, that open cockpit, fixed landing gear, fabric covered biplane ended the war equipped with radar :eek:
