The Smith Mini


Lately I've become interested in open cockpit airplanes. Sometimes the neatest things are right under your nose. I saw this Smith Mini parked outside of Lee Andrews' hangar today. It's a cool little biplane with a C-85 engine in it - the same motor that drives my Cessna 140.

I finished up the canopy frame on my RV-7 project. I dug out the canopy from the big finish kit box that has been sitting in a corner of my hangar for six months. Time to start trimming the canopy.
