Yesterday I had the excellent opportunity to meet with Jim Clark<\/a> of Junction City, Kansas and interview him about his exquisitely restored 1939 Waco EGCH “Custom Cabin”<\/a>. Jim and his airplane are the third owner\/airplane of the next movie I am doing which I hope to have completed by the first of November. This movie is about Classic and Antique Airplanes. All 6 of these pictures are “screen grabs” from my raw footage.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The Big Bird Emerges<\/p><\/div>\n

Here we see the shining masterpiece in motion as it emerges from its hangar.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The business end "comin' atcha"<\/p><\/div>\n

The Wright Whirlwind<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Jim maneuvers the big Waco into place on the lush green runway<\/p><\/div>\n

We did the interview and “walk-around” of the aircraft against the rolling hills that rim Freeman Field<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Jim discusses the research and detail that went into perfecting the painted CAA logo<\/p><\/div>\n

Besides the exquisite attention to detail shown in the restoration of the Civil Aeronautics Authority<\/a> logo, I like the fact that this shot shows you care Jim has taken to keep the fabric waxed and shined. His reflection is like in a glass mirror.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The Waco Custom Cabin is known as a sesquiplane and looks good from any angle<\/p><\/div>\n

If you want to learn what a sesquiplane is you will have to wait for my movie or look it up yourself. HINT: It has to do with the wings.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Waco Fly-By<\/p><\/div>\n

Here the Waco is in its natural element.<\/p>\n

I’ll keep you posted as this new movie project progresses<\/p>\n
