#tbt Part 2: The "Spirit of Lawrence Tech," nicknamed “Chappy” in honor of Randy Chapman, an alum and faculty member who died in 1945, was sold in the 1950s. In 1984, “Chappy” was returned to LTU in hundreds of pieces and dozens of plastics bags. It took a team of 25 volunteers five years to restore the plane. “Chappy” was hung in the Buell atrium in 1989. For more information on "Chappy," visit www.ltu.edu/news/chappy.asp #ltuhistory #throwback

LTU's student-built racing plane, "Chappy," hangs in the Buell atrium. Its unusual "pusher" design uses a rear-mounted propeller that "pushes" the plane forward. #tbt #throwback #ltuhistory

In honor of the Blue Devil Motorsports unveiling in the atrium at noon, check out this photo from November of 1988 #tbt #throwback #ltuhistory #ltumotorsports (at Lawrence Technological University)
