Looks like an "Early Bird Jenny", which is a 67% scale replica of the Curtiss Jenny. Your viewers should know that this is absolutely NOT an actual WWI aircraft. It is an experimental, amateur built aircraft, designed by Dennis Wile... and it was probably built 80 years after WWI, in the early 1990s. :) The real Curtiss Jenny is quite a bit larger, and there are still a few original flying examples still around.

Dear Jimmy, that little oil reservoir on top of the engine *is not the lubricant for your crankshaft, rods and pistons* ! The little oil reservoir only lubes your rotary vane which sits between the carburetor and the engine block, nothing else. So, please add appropriate 2-stroke oil to your fuel.

If they are using the fuel that was left in the tank it is premixed. If they did not add very much regular fuel it might be ok for very short run

Registry for the plane lists engine as Bombardier snowmobile engine. I thought the Bombardier , which is like the 503. Had a fully lubricated injector system not requiring fuel/oil mixing.

Energy management: Replace cowl edge foam with 4" foam especially in front of pilot. Replace metal windshield screws with nylon fasteners so your face can shear them off.* *3. Stuctural rigidity: Inspect all cables for any corrision in particular the eyes for abrasive wear. I always find one.*

I flew several types of Quicksilver ultralights with Rotax engines. All of them required premix oil fuel. Great engines with little failure. The only problem I had was a spark plug wire coming of mid flight. The engine was mounted with the jugs on the bottom and we had to put bungie cords across the wires to make sure they stayed put. The 532 engine was water cooled but the 503 was my favorite. Hand starting them on a cold morning with no choke was a chore. Real great little aircraft that are still in production I think. We rounded up cattle and herded wild horses for local cowboys with ours. Take care, have fun, jack

That's not a 503. It looks like a 532 water cooled. Unfortunately it's an old engine and spares are becoming increasingly hard to come by which will reduce the value. As posted elsewhere, you MUST use 50:1 2-stroke premix as that little reservoir is for lubricating the rotary valves ONLY. Rotax 2-strokes are pretty bullet proof and if you use straight Mogas it'll fly for a surprisingly long time as an old friend found out with a 582 that has the same lubrication (as does my X-air) but it will seize eventually.
