DC-3 can do 2900' if it's light, can't it? Hangar might be another issue, though.

I can but my issue is 2 fold. 1: My hanger is only 100' wide. 2) The runway has trees down the edge of the entire runway and a bank on the other side. No room for mistakes and no room for a 3 :-(

The eternal dilemma, need vs want, glad to see you chose well!
I spend my money on my women, good red wine, and airplanes.....the rest is wasted

That is a stunningly beautiful airplane. Love it, lots of history and just pure aviation..
Radical engines on a gorgeous airframe. You own a piece of history enjoy it.
I want one!

Wow Glenn! This is just about the coolest airplane ever. My grandfather had a 10A. I think I spent more time at OSH staring at a 12A than any other plane. Congratulations. I hope I get to see it some day!
