We fly them for tours at Oshkosh during AirVenture. One belongs to EAA the others are leased from private owners. Those owners are also involved in the AV tour operations. There several more around owned by other members of the group. Pretty good supply of parts available too. Everyone involved is a volunteer. We have a great time!!! There will be 4 and possibly 5 flying there this year. Fun stuff!!!
