Two Idaho homebuilding enthusiasts recently completed and flew a replica of a 1909 Herring-Curtiss Pusher Model D, which was the first aircraft flown in State of Idaho. The Idaho Centennial of Flight takes place in October of this year (2010) and Jim Otey, EAA26863, of Lewiston, Idaho, and his project partner Dean Wilson, of nearby Clarkston, Washington, spent two years building the aircraft with the assistance of a set of drawings an area elder found in a family home he was helping clean out.
