Airworthy Super Solution replica in the hangar at Fantasy of Flight. This reproduction represents the 1931 racing aircraft that won the first Bendix Trophy in the hands of Maj. James Doolittle that year. The race started in Burbank and ended in Cleveland with quick stops at Albuquerque and Kansas City, being completed in 9:10:21 with an average speed of 223.06 mph. Famous as an inter-war pilot with many exploits to his name, Jimmy Doolittle quickly refuelled the fast Super Solution and continued to Newark, setting a new transcontinental record of 11h 16 min, beating the old record by over an hour. Note that there is a static replica in the exact same livery on display at the EAA Museum at Oshkosh.

This is a static replica of the racer, but Kermit Weeks owns an airworthy replica in the exact same livery, based at his Fantasy of Flight museum at Polk City.
