I wanna play Don! This one is a Gwinn Aircar. Not the most aesthetic of designs! I think Claude McCullough built a large model of this airplane some years back.

Neet Odd Ball pitts and bet it is the one and only experimental Electra varient called the C-40B and later in 1940 convered back to a C-40A with conventional gear.

Howard Hawks was another movie type.
And I screwed up when I put Frank Hawks in the Gulfhawk, the Gulf driver was Al Williams.

Don that little amphib is sure interesting but no joy. At first I thought something like Loening's Air Yaght or the Eastman Sea Rover but neither are anything like it.
Man I sure would feel uncomfortable in something that used compression struts to take the flight loads like that.

Replica of the first airplane to fly coast to coast, the original was sponsored by a soft drink company, and the plane became known by the name of the drink; Vin-Fizz. Pilot? Calbraith Perry Rogers. The year was 1911
