| I am the third owner of this aircraft. It was initially owned by a flying club in Dayton Ohio. I bought it from Barry Brown in Augusta Georgia in 1978. The paint scheme is patterned from a 1974 model. The engine is new with less than 100 hours on it. I had a complete leather interior installed this past year. The instrument panel is all original, no chopping or modifying.I have replaced instruments as needed.I added some custom wing tips for a little extra speed.This plane is a 9 inside and out. My son Brian who is flying in the photo got his private license in it last year.My flying parter Ron Blecha and myself based it originally at Stone Mountain airport, until they closed the airport.It's now at Lawrenceville, Ga. | |
