Well,

Selling the Champ. Bought a Citabria and even after putting an addition on the hanger we own with three other people we can’t fit 5 planes in it. Here is the link for the Trade A Plane listing. We have had a lot of fun with her. I will be sad to see her go.

It's hard to believe your Champ is almost 80 years old......she has aged so graciously.

Thanks guys,

Like so many others that look good in their old age she has had some work done over the years.

Welp,

Looks like she is sold. Just moved her to a strip 40 miles South so it wouldn’t get snowed in. She is heading to Georgia so flying it out on skis wasn’t an option. Lake George from the south end .

Congratulations Pete! I will be passing by you on my way to Big Moose Lake on February 9th. Maybe you can fly to The Glenmore that week and I buy lunch? Annual snowmobile trip.
Year #43 straight!
