Grumman F3F Flies in Sonoma, California

A Grumman F3F is now flying in Sonoma, California.  One of several F3F's that were recovered from Hawaii and rebuild in Texas this F3F was operated for many years by the Lone Star Flight Museum.  After a hurricane flooded the museum the aircraft was sold.  Watch the video below for its first flight in recent years!
