Title: Classy Bear 54E Refurbished
Post by Bill G on Jun 11th, 2012 at 5:14am
My Classy Bear 54E is a morphed up in version of Al Eastman’s Class Bear.    After two years of thump and bump I decided to refurbish her.

Stripped her down to the bones then added new tail feathers, modified the aileron linkage, moved the motor ahead, and beefed up the landing gear.

New covering – yellow with red trim rather than the old red with white trim.

Made up a fiber glass nose.

Painted the cowl….

Now ready to rock and roll.

Will it stand up to the rigors of Margaree?    Yes - at least once.
