The World's Only Jet Powered Bi-plane
Jimmy and Kyle Franklin: The Franklin Airshow

The jet propulsion aggregate is visible.

 

  In 1999 they modified Jimmy's 1940 Waco bi-plane with a T-38 (J-85) jet engine along with the 450 horse power Pratt & Whitney radial prop engine.

With both engines turning the Jet Waco puts out over 4500 pounds of thrust at over 2000 horsepower,

  
Going up.
Kyle standing on his head, the jet engine roars away.		  

 

 


"What goees up ..."

  
"... and round and round..."		  

 

 
Kyle changing position.		      

 

 
Upside down.		      

 

 


And between the wings.

  

This was truly an amazing show !
