We picked up the Sky Pup last month in South Carolina. After an epic drive ahead of all the blizzards she’s now in the JPA shop. The Sky Pup service several purposes: spotter plane, training vehicle and research tool. She has an all foam structure cover in aircraft fabric. Prefect for JPA! The design has many high strength, extreme light weight aspects that bear study. She cruses at 55mph and this model has been flown to 18,000 feet.
We’re building a hard deck on the top of the wing to add a ballistic parachute, installing a altimeter and a tail wheel.
