Holy cow we've been busy this summer! So busy in fact we forgot to update you all on facebook, So here's a quick recap:
1. We bought a Mooney! A neat little 1977 M20J out of Michigan. Trucking a Mooney is an adventure. The wing is one piece so you need a loooong trailer. This airplane has a fresh overhauled engine, fresh overhauled prop, and will soon have a brand new paint job.
2. The R182 is done and sold. In fact it's going back to near where we got it from in Missouri. This one was hard to let go with that incredible avionics package.
3. We got to work on this incredible 4 place Super Cub. The owner wanted it put on floats for the first time, which involved a lot of custom fabrication, but it sure was cool! This airplane is now for sale.
4. Speaking of for sale, our '56 G35 Bonanza is for sale again also. The gentlemen we sold it too loved the plane, but had some health issues and asked us to move it to a new home for him. This airplane is so much fun to fly!
5. Working on airplanes is full contact sport, as you can see by the dent on Dennis' head.
6. Of course we were at EAA Airventure all week. What a show! Catching up with customers, vendors, meeting new people, and seeing all the airplanes.
7. And finally, big congratulations to our local EAA Ray Scholar Erik Kosch, who earned his Private Pilots License only days before heading off to the US Merchant Marine Academy. We were honored to mentor him throughout the process.
