You know who you are. You've put a lot of time, work, and money into your bird, and you want to share it with those who would appreciate and even lust over it. You want the world to see what your idea of the ultimate bush plane is, or how much you were able to improve upon a ramp mummy. You like long hydroplanes on the beach and cuddling up with a good book about Acceptable Methods, Techniques, and Practices for Aircraft Inspection and Repair.

A working airplane?

94U had about 25,000 hours on her when I had her up in Kotzebue. She's one of the Queens of the Fleet down in Bethel now, and I'm betting about 35,000 hours on the airframe. Same beautiful paint job, finest leathers in the interior, glass cockpit and FMS to take you anywhere, any time.... Oh wait, none of that shit.

Did Hoser enjoy flying? My dog hates flying just a little less than she hates being left behind.

You couldn't keep that dog out of an airplane. He loved every minute. Or, the back of the pickup. He bit at cars as they passed the other way. Semi's were even better. Two snaps.

Actually, a working 207 with 35,000 hours on it is very interesting. The depth of the story there has potential.

Agreed Zane. That is a seasoned bush plane. Sorry for the thread drift.

Most Sleds still flying are up in the 20-30K range now. Tough birds.

My supercub had almost 29,000 hours when I sold her...most of those pipeline hours.

I'm sure missing her now
