By: Chet Peek


This book is the story of the Standard J-1 in war and in peace.

After returning from the Army Air Force service in WWII, the author pursued an engineering career in industry and academics. Peek also developed a consuming hobby: that of restoring and flying over a dozen antique airplanes.

The Forgotten Barnstormer, The Story of the Standard J-1

The Standard J was a substitute standard basic trainer aircraft produced in the United States from 1916-18. It was a 2-seat tandem biplane constructed from wood with wire bracing and fabric covering.

Charles Healy Day had designed the Sloan H series of aircraft and continued the line under the Standard Aero Corporation, which later became the Standard Aircraft Corporation.

One of Chet's other restorations, a 1917 Curtiss Jenny, was featured in the 1989 EAA magazine.


148 pages, softbound, 8.5 x 11, photos.
