Saw one of these at a fly-in at Vancouver WA - last time they did it due to 
planned development of the airport property.  jAlso saw a 3/4 replica  P-51 
custom job.  A flying Porsche 911 SC, I think

the Staggerwing was simply gorgeous.  Had just interior completely restored 
in carmel-colored leather to match the original.  A beauty.

Saw it take off a couple of times but can't remember, but looks like main 
gear is retractable?

Bob in Seattle
