Murphy Moose Aircraft Click on any image to see a larger version of the picture.
Our family purchased this aircraft in May 2004. The aircraft is a Murphy Moose, which is an experimental airplane kit manufactured by Murphy Aircraft (see their website here). Having this plane enabled our family to see many wonders throughout the Western U.S., and to carry all of our camping gear in style! |
