FOR SALE
Would you please list my beloved "Jenny" in your For Sale list.
The JN-4D is serial #1 designed and built by Dennis Wyle of EARLY BIRDS (LSA
legal). She has been upgraded to full flight & Engine instruments with a new Jabiru 2200 engine. Comes with Sporty's handheld radio &
GPS, WWI uniform, helmet/goggles ETC. There are full flying controls (except
brakes, mainly used for steering) but no flight instruments in the front cockpit.
"Jenny's" gross is 800 lbs and she weighs in at 500 lbs. leaving
300lbs for useful load. I fly at 190 lbs which limits my passenger & fuel to
110 lbs. If the wings were recovered with the lighter dacron and the resin not
applied. the plane would then weight in at 400 lbs. giving you a useful load of
400 lbs. Which means she could carry as much as she weighs. As the front
passenger seat is over the wings (CG) balance is not affected. "Jenny"
could therefore serve he original purpose as a trainer, which might be a good
thing for new single seat tail dragger pilots of the dawn patrol. As you know
there is a learning curve flying these old school planes. I've got about $45K in her and I doubt if
you could build one today for that amount. But I will consider any reasonable
offer. The Plane is hangared in Howe, IN on a grass strip. She may be just the
ticket for the pilot who wants to fly with the Dawn Patrol, but doesn't have the
time or desire to build his own replica.

This is made for the Nieuport 17, which uses a full cowl, but it would be
easy to change for the Nieuports that have the Horseshoe Cowl.
It is designed to make individual half cowls, each having a molded in
joggled lip on one edge, so that the halves key together, with camlocks or
captive hardware. You can make the joint vertical or horizonta
The mold is made from epoxy and has strengtheners to keep it stable. I am
showing the two molded halves pushed together, and the sample I have is one that
I made from epoxy and glass cloth, but was slightly heavier than I wanted. Then
I made one with one less layer of cloth, that was used on my Nieuport 17.
The diameter is 34 inches, and the overall length, that can be trimmed,
is 24 inches.
If the mold needs to be
shipped, I can box it with 1/4 in ply for safe shipping.
Price, with the molded examples, not including shipping, is $200. I am
willing to drive/deliver for 200 miles each way, for the gasoline, 20 mpg. Maybe
to meet the buyer?
