Murphy Renegade

renegade

If your preference is for the classic look, but you’d also like some modern performance numbers, the Renegade may be perfect. If you think you would enjoy following rivers in an open cockpit airplane and throwing yourself through an occasional loop or roll, the Renegade should be perfect. If you want a rugged biplane that goes together quickly, costs less than any other aerobatic biplane kit out there, and that has proven itself in the hands of hundreds of other builders, then the Renegade is perfect! The open cockpit biplane has a certain nostalgic eye appealing quality which is reflected in the Renegade Spirit.
