A replica of Ben Epps' 1907 Monoplane, displayed at the Valiant Air Command Museum's lobby. Built by John D Pruett, model listed in the FAA registry entry as JP3. Recent research has determined that the original aircraft was actually the first monoplane to fly in the United States, and actually had its first flight in 1909, rather than 1907 as previously believed.
