PlaneBuilds.net: Bristol Boxkite by Ron Gretton and Geoff Matthews

[Jon]

This replica Bristol Boxkite is being built by Ron Gretton and Geoff Matthews on Boxkite2014.org, to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the first Boxkite's Australian arrival in 1914. It's powered by a Rotec R2800 engine, and is one of only a few Boxkites flying today.

The Boxkite may not have been the fastest plane in the history of aviation, but one look and you'll know it was the most accurately-named.
