Sopwith Pup

This replica Sopwith Pup was originally built by

Pat Tomlinson in 1968.

It is powered by an 80 HP Le Rhone rotary engine.

It was built using the original factory drawings with the substitution

of square steel tubing for the wood construction of the fuselage

It has been out of service for several years due to the deterioration

of the fabric covering over the past 38 years.
