| When I graduated from FSU in 1963 I was able to purchase this airplane from a Marine Corps Major being sent to Europe. It was located on Milton T field at Milton Florida. He wanted $1500.00 but we had nothing but a good credit rating. When I asked what was the least he would take and he said, $1250.00 I dashed back to FWB about 40 miles to the east and my banker loaned me the money. He took me on three touch and gos and rushed to the base where he was running late. I had asked if I could land at the small strip at Navarre and was given permission. We lived in Destin 22 miles to the east. It was getting dark and with nothing but a compass for navigation I flew to Highway 87 and followed it to the strip. The cars on the road were driving with head lights so this helped a lot. I didn't know how to turn on the lights or anything just how to fly it like I did the Aeronica Champ that I soloed in at FSU. It had a stick which made it more easy for me. Later my dad wanted to learn to fly it but due to the conventional gear he had lots of difficulty like a lot of folks. So before long we traded it in to the Schuler flying service in Tallahassee for a 1956 172. I only made one long cross country from Destin's small 1800 clay strip to Dunnellon where one of our customers and I fished for bass in the Rainbow and Withacoochie River. I still remember the trip vividly and what I caught four small bass. It was a delight to fly except for the hand cranking. It had a small wind driven generator between the wheel struts. I hope this is useful to someone who loves this plane or one like it. I'd love to hear news of it. God bless. | |
