摘要

Admit it. Even if you fly Boeing 777s or Airbus 380s for a living, haven't you always wanted to climb into the rear pit of an open-cockpit biplane and launch for near horizons? When you attend an air show, don't you feel a twinge of envy for that guy flying by in a '30s vintage biplane's back seat, black leather skull cap confirming his superiority to everything else in the sky, white scarf flowing in the breeze as he rumbles past at a leisurely 100 knots? If you're watching what looks to be a marvelously restored Waco buzz the field, be aware it could be a 2015 model. How could that be? It's true the original Wacos are antiques from the 1930s, but starting in 1985, a group of biplane fanatics in Michigan decided to resurrect the type and build updated versions of the then half-century-old classics.The plan was to stick to the already certified configuration of the original airplane to avoid reinventing the wing, and suffering the financial pains and endless delays associated with FAA recertification.
