WACO Model UBF-2, NC-13027
1932
This restoration was commissioned with
a minimum of existing parts hence much of the airframe was built
new from patterns and Waco factory prints. It is, however, quite
original in configuration and style, with the exception of the modern
avionics.
The trim style is original...silver wings
and horizontal tail surfaces, colored fuselage, gear, fin and rudder.
The color patterns are original.
This airplane was completed in 1994, and
has won major awards at Oshkosh, Sun'n' Fun, and the National Biplane
Association event at Bartlesville, OK. It was displayed at Oshkosh
1999 and won the same award that it did in 1994. It is based in
Wyoming, and flown regularly by its owner.
