F1 Rocket

The F1 Rocketmen are Chuck Nuffer and Rick Mentel. In our quest for performance, Chuck and Rick have chosen to build an F1 Rocket. The plane is the size of an RV4 and powered by an IO-540! Our current rides include Rick's 1964 S model V35 and Chuck's 1963 P model V35 and a 1959 Champion Champ.

We are beginning to do the final closeout of the rear tail section of the plane. All the taiil surfaces are complete. We have begun to wire the plane and the engine install is mostly complete.

You’ll notice throughout our building we are borrowing ideas and utilizing the expertise of others. We hope those viewing can take away some ideas of their own.
