News: Taylorcraft L-2 is back on line
Feb 14 2011The L-2 is back on line!
Our 1945 little warbird is back. N50839 was a real military plane in 1945, serving with the US Army on the home front as a liaison and observation plane. Converted back to its civilian form, it is a great example of a plane that so many pilots learnt to fly in – the Taylorcraft “tandem trainer”.
Come fly the spirit of a bygone age – wooden prop, “Armstrong” starter, slide open the window and stick your elbow out and enjoy low and slow flying.
Itty bitty warbird
