Good stuff

Flying in ANC tons with company, not so much of this type of flying, living vicariously :wink:

Too funny. Worst plane to commit a crime with.

Good to see that F-19 again - got to put it in my logbook about three years ago moving it around the Mojave desert for a previous owner. Pretty dang clean in the ad (other than the rightly-present mud on the lower wing) - looks like it’s living a good life. Ironically - I own an F-19 now as well; Taylorcraft are a great budget bush plane.

I believe it’s in Tennessee now?

Did you trade the 140 in?

Big discovery today. It turns out Swirly Girl’s paint job may not have been a random accident. Discovered this today:

Nope - just expanded the fleet. Why have one Cessna 180 with ample capacity, speed, and utility when you can have three 100 mph planes that only each hold 2 people and leave you cold in the winter? Airplane Logic!

As it stands:
Cessna 120 - Just got a fresh engine

F-19 (owned in a partnership)
