Starduster. It was built in Illinois by Marvin Miller. It has a carbureted O-360
and no inverted, so is limited to positive maneuvers for now. I live in
Washington State (West Richland). Thanks, Paul Bragg. pbragg@bentonrea.com

The
airplane pictured is a Starduster SA100 powered by a Lycoming O-320-E2D,
modified to 160h.p.. It was constructed by a real craftsman, John B.
Snyder, from Richardson, TX., who along with three of his friends, built
four nearly identical SA100's in assembly line fashion, with the one shown
completed in 1994. While it does not have inverted systems, it does a
credible job in entry-level positive "G" aerobatics and is a ball to
fly.
Not quite "Pitts-like", but neither are the landings!!
