Who was the pilot, the report says "Ray". Was that Ray Fowler?
And is this the plane that was taken away from the CAF some years ago or is this one built more from scratch?
It was Ray Fowler that flew it! This is not the CAF plane, it was rebuilt using parts acquired from Walt Soplata (one fuselage and other parts) and from several crash sites, not to mention a lot of newly manufactured parts!!
