The article said “The breaks were smoking” I hope they didn’t brake them.

Kidding aside. I’m always relieved to see that no one was seriously hurt.
That Corsair will fly again for sure.

Hey!
Great to hear from you again Ian.
I’ve been wondering how things have been going.
Thanks for sharing the pics of the progress :eagerness:

Andy

Rocketeer, you have summed it up perfectly!
Wow indeed!
That is a truly amazing accomplishment.

They use the P.T. Barnum technique of believing that there is a sucker born every minute.
It has proved to be very fruitful for them.

That DH9 looks so amazing!
This is a very exciting and welcomed addition to the living vintage aircraft scene.
Thanks to Mr. Black and his team.

All correct ericmunk.
I have heard from pilots who have flown both. the Yale has a lot less power as well as more drag due to the fixed gear.
After spending time in the Harvard one has to be very mindful of the differences. The Yale does not have the power to recover energy as well as the Harvard.

That final photo in the post by Rivet joint shows what looks like a rather “sporty” landing in the Yale.

I always appreciate the great photos in this thread.

Thanks all.

I agree with Andy.
A genuine NOS part merely becomes part of 788’s history.
If you want, you could label the part as a replacement like you did with the bits from the pasta strainer.
