Not sure but I think the Sopwith triplane didn't fly because of something with the FAA's rules. But that's OK, it would have flown anyway because they tried to start the engine (the only rotatory there that year) with no luck.

I hope that Jerry Yagen get's an invite to the DPR-2011 and becomes aware of the GWAA.
