Title: Southern Cross replica
Post by: DeadNutz on January 18, 2022, 06:18:28 PM

The replica Fokker Trimotor that depicts the famous Southern Cross airplane has been repaired. The engines have been run and some taxi tests carried out. HARS has an incredible aviation museum and operation and dedicated volunteers that do incredible work.

Here is a video of the taxi tests.

I do too, cyclone 9s, how about the Super Connie poking its nose out of the hanger.

That's a favorite of mine they roar..
