  • Kelly Mahon flies Mid America Flight Museum's Waco Nine over Mt. Pleasant, Texas.<br />
<br />
1925 Waco Nine NC1536 serial number 9<br />
<br />
The Waco Nine is a tube and fabric constructed, three-seat open cockpit bi-plane built by the Advanced Aircraft Company.  The Waco Nine was the First mass-produced model with about 270 aircraft produced between 1925 and 1926.  The Waco Nine holds the Type Certificate number ATC11 and is licensed as a Standard Category aircraft. All the Waco Nine models were powered by the water cooled, Curtiss OX-5 90 HP engine turning 1,400 RPM.<br />
<br />
NC1536 was built in 1925 and is serial number 9 off the line of about 270 built. In 2000, Frank Pavliga started what turned out to be a 14 year restoration of this magnificent piece of American History. Forrest Barber made the first flight on Friday, April 13, 2012. <br />
<br />
The aircraft restoration is considered by most that have seen it to be a perfect “10”. Frank made every effort to keep the aircraft 100% original down to the steerable tailskid and no brakes! There are estimated to be 10-15 Waco Nine airframes scattered around including several in museums, but it is believed that this is the only flyable example remaining.  <br />

The Waco Nine is a tube and fabric constructed, three-seat open cockpit bi-plane built by the Advanced Aircraft Company.  The Waco Nine was the First mass-produced model with about 270 aircraft produced between 1925 and 1926.  The Waco Nine holds the Type Certificate number ATC11 and is licensed as a Standard Category aircraft. All the Waco Nine models were powered by the water cooled, Curtiss OX-5 90 HP engine turning 1,400 RPM.<br />
<br />
NC1536 was built in 1925 and is serial number 9 off the line of about 270 built. In 2000, Frank Pavliga started what turned out to be a 14 year restoration of this magnificent piece of American History. Forrest Barber made the first flight on Friday, April 13, 2012. <br />
<br />
The aircraft restoration is considered by most that have seen it to be a perfect “10”. Frank made every effort to keep the aircraft 100% original down to the steerable tailskid and no brakes! There are estimated to be 10-15 Waco Nine airframes scattered around including several in museums, but it is believed that this is the only flyable example remaining.  <br />
