Cedar Rapids native builds Stuka replica for Oshkosh show
Louie Langhurst of Cedar Rapids spent nine years and about 8000 hours constructing a 7/10 scale flying replica of a World War II Stuka dive bomber. The craft, 23 feet 11 inches long, features custom components and a Lycoming engine, and Langhurst flew the test in Oshkosh where he won awards. He plans to sell the aircraft for around 50000 dollars, while noting it will always be his.
