Really cool. I took side trip after the vid to watch one about reproduction Wright Flyer. Those were kites!

The YouTube comment section says this machine was built in 2009?
Anyone know how many replicas have been built since the original?

Yeah, I noticed the engine looked pretty new (Continental?) right off the bat, then I read that the plane is a repop.
Still pretty cool.

Still pretty cool.

No denying that!

It got a bacon because it made me smile all through the video.

There's been many replicas built of the original Flyer as well as other, later models.

Here in Redding, we have a replica Wright Model A flyer, powered by a Ford 1.6L 4-cylindar engine.
