- Nick Coleman’s colorful Taperwing Waco spent two decades languishing in a semi-forgotten hangar before Nick acquired it and meticulously restored it to airworthy condition, making a trip to EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2021 last summer in the airplane.

The tapering is such a unique plane. Nothing on this planet except for Rolls-Royce engine can ever sound that cool and amazing. I got goosebumps listening to it fire up.That is such a unique sound I would start that plane and run out of fuel just to listen to that thing start up from cold. Flying that has to be just such an amazing feeling every single time. Excellent plane/video keep up the good work.
gorgeous bird
This taper wing started as a kit from Nu Waco aircraft company owned by EA Bode. Ernie used original Waco blueprints to fabricate and sell kits for building the taper wing. He built kits and sold them to several people for a few years until he retired in New Mexico. EA Bode was my father and I helped him get started with the taper wing kit business many years ago.

Did this originally have a gold leaf firebird on the top wing?
