Hi OrvilleI am always amazed at how far a little encouagement can go. Years ago whe I first decided to build a Piet I thought a Cirrus engine would be perfect for one.I never ever thought I'd own one. It seems that if you do your good deeds it always comes back! Perhaps not in the way you thought it would but it always happens. The Lysander we have at the museum is static display only and is actually in pretty sad shape. There is one in Assiniboia Saskatchewan that is almost flight ready. The same gentleman also has a Hurricane. He has been very helpful with the museum and helped us find the Cessna Crane. I don't know many of the U.S. Model A dealers but there are lots of places to buy parts the hard part is to find some one to do babbiting.John________________________________________________________________________________
