A five year project. As far as we know this is the first and only amphibious Stinson Gullwing. The floats are serial number 1&2 4200’s by Wipline, also a first, which were supplied with the understanding deck down only, the rest of the rigging and engineering was up to us. Enter @momentumaero whose brilliant and innovative engineering brought this all to fruition. Last and most important, the aircraft owners who believed in our team, exercised great patience and supported us. A couple weeks of R&D flying is scheduled followed by FAA test flights and final certification. Upon success of this we hope to share the aircraft @eaavintage This project was a long haul punctuated by getting through 2020. We’re very proud of our team and grateful for all involved. @super_davephoto photos

The reflection of laying a foundation for a fine finish. Hours of wet sanding. The final step is applying color with our end result being out of the gun and done. No color sanding, buffing or polishing. Our system? Hard work, a keen eye, more hard work and an amazing painter
