About The Hall Bulldog Project
The Hall Bulldog completed its first official flight on August 16, 1932—and nearly a century later, a small team of aviation experts has embarked on a mission to revive this iconic aircraft.
The project brings together:
- Jim Bourke - World-ranked aerobatic competitor and air show pilot
- Tony Horvath - Award-winning aircraft designer and fabricator
- Matthew Lawlor - Aviation historian
Using photos, drawings, and film clips, the team is reconstructing the original design and engineering of the aircraft while sharing their research with the aviation community.
