Ah yes! What I wouldn't give to have that airplane today! Just a real joy to fly. Had the fuel tank in front of the cockpit windshield and a little thingie-do that floated on the surface of the fuel an stuck up through the cap to show you how much fuel was in the tank. A tach, a Hobbs, oil pressure and temp, airspeed and the little ball in the curved tube for turn and bank. As simple an aircraft as you could imagine.

I think it burned about 3 gallons an hour and if I am not mistaken the aero club that owned it charged $6.00 an hour, wet, to rent it.

Really miss those days of flying!

Years ago we had an airshow here in Central Missouri and someone showed up in one. I fell in loved with it. It is one of those airplanes you would love to have to take off in and get up high and enjoy being up there..:)

Is your ticket up to date?
