Kent has participated in the wonderful project from 2001 to 2003, doing wingroot fairings and tail skins.
He used the
Little PowerHouse Benchtop Wheel
and the
Little Power Hammer
to build these polished parts.
This airplane was built to claim the records still available to the original H1, as the original H1 was
flown only 42 hours and was not fully tuned and prepared for record attempts, even though winning the
closed course and coast to coast records.

This airplane is built exactly to the original, using none of the original plans, but only photos and
measurements from the original.
