1932 Benny Howard DGA–4 “Mike” (Replica)

This aircraft, a replica of the famous pylon racer of the thirties, is a “non–flyer” at the request of the donor. Badly damaged during an attempted take–off, its former owner felt the airplane should not be flown.

Restored by 5 teenagers and 3 adults, it is a good representation of the adventure and style of the early 30's pylon racers.

Year (Replica) – 1932

Interesting Facts – This aircraft is unique with its geodetic design, (basket weave), which gives it strength.

Gift of Michael Hoskins
