Very cool. Nice to see history like this kept alive. Nothing sounds like a radial taking off.

 
Here's a picture of Fifi's cockpit. Must give you one heck of a view at altitude. Although it might give an exposed feeling if someone was shooting at you.

Cool, no doubt. FIFI was a regular once a year at the Allegheny County Airport for a small airshow/static display,where the Pittsburgh Institute of Aeronautics is situated,and where I got my tickets.
My Dad flew 29's and several other aircraft out of Tinian in the South Pacific.

Pop was one of the few I could talk to about aviation issues being a 'member' more than the average Joe.
