EARLY AMERICAN WINGS

This is where I spent 22 years of my spare time in the past. Before I put together the Skin Care Website If you are looking for someone that can organize a large project. That I Can Do...

With his 20 years of antique airplane restoration, Wayne Potter can recreate past craftsmanship with modern materials for an airplane's needs. His list of completed airplanes includes: J3 Cub, Stinson Voyager, Fairchild 24, three Stearmans, and a DeHavilland Moth Minor. These airplanes have won awards at Oshkosh and the National Stearman Fly-In, or have been put into museums. At this time, work on a Fairchild 24 is in progress. This airplane is the first airplane that was owned by Mohawk Airlines. To see pictures of the Moth Minor restoration progress and the completed airplane, click on MOTH PICTURES.

Investments in memories or finances are secure in Wayne's shop. He works on the basis of time and materials. Each month, he provides a day-to-day account of work done, along with photos of the progress.

Early American Wings will be moving into a new hangar this Spring with open shop time.

With a team of 5 craftsmen working on a project, the downtime is kept within reason.

Detailed daily work sheets are kept along with photos of the progress. We are willing to do a project from the start or pick up where someone has left off. Or if you need help in getting your own project done, we can do any part that will help you along.

So...if your airplane comes from the 1930s or 1940s era and is one of the many left or the last one to be flying, Wayne would enjoy talking about your project needs.

Wayne is available to talk over any aspect of an antique airplane or a project. You can telephone Wayne Potter at 412-531-1170, or FAX him at 412-531-1170. You can also get in touch with Wayne via e-mail - just click on the following link: Early American Wings
