Clint,

I have traveled much the same path as you. I started back in after a 25 year hiatus from the sport. I flew an electric glider to get some stick time then got a U-Can-Do. Flew that for a bit and decided to try the war bird thing. So I have the H-9 P-40 in my truck getting ready to maiden. Sorry for the not complete pic, but I am just heading to the field in between rain storms to see if I can get it airborne. I think it's going to be a great plane.

Listen to these guys, they know their stuff. Be comfortable with what you get.

Tom
