I am interested in learning more about the full bodied Bowers Fly Baby biplane PH-CVH. Are ther more pictures or specifications on the web? What sort of engine is used?
I imagine a similar Boeing P-26 PeaShooter replica based on a Flybaby and a radial(?) motor. I am concerned about the weigtht, drag, and large Townend Ring Cowling so far ahead of the CG in the P-26 concept.
