The Spirit SE-1 is built around a simple idea: make flying affordable again.

It burns about two gallons per hour of mogas, keeps maintenance straightforward, and its folding wings make storage easier and less expensive.

Originally purchased by the Wrigley family in 1946, this aircraft nicknamed “The Wasp” served as a flying link between Chicago and Catalina Island. After decades of history, it was lost, sold, and nearly forgotten… until it resurfaced in rough condition on a ramp in California.

What followed was a nearly decade-long restoration to bring this historic airplane back to its original 1940s glory.
