N8129K
My father owned this aircraft in the late 60s. What a joy to fly in it. He loved it.
I believe he sold it in 1969. It was based then at SJC, San Jose, CA.
In 1983 we attended the Watsonville Antique Fly-in, and I spotted it there on
display. I said, "hey Dad, it's your old Stinson, N8129K." He said, you remembered the tail number?" I said, "sure I did". what a thrill to see it again.
I can't believe it now lives in CT. It would really be nice to have it's current owner contact me. Ron Lumley, mtybluesman@yahoo.com

Interesting. My dad flew the fam (mom + 3 kids) from SJC to RMG in 1961 in this aircraft. It was owned by John (something) and dad borrowed it for the trip. Quite the adventure! I, too, would love to have this in my hangar.
