Construction started on our Jenny in February 2017 and has progressed to the status you see in the attached photos. The covering and painting process will begin in 2020. The Jenny will be the focal point of the Poplar Grove Vintage Wings and Wheels Museum, and will be flown at Poplar Grove and local fly-in events to promote the museum and the airport. The museum is funding the project through donations and the work is being done by EAA Chapter 1414 volunteers. It truly is a work of art that must be seen to be appreciated! The Jenny Team typically worked on the aircraft on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays of each week from 10am until 3pm.
Stop by the Vintage Wings and Wheels Museum and have a look at this outstanding aircraft and its craftsmanship! A Built from scratch, true-to-life, museum quality, fully operational Jenny – America’s first mass-produced ‘flying machine’! This aircraft is a collaboration between the Museum’s restoration team and EAA Chapter 1414 members. Our goal with this project is to represent historical aviation for children and adults for years to come.
