N3425C in the air after 34 years!

N3425C · Post by **N3425C** » Thu Aug 02, 2007 2:57 pm

My father in-law and I bought N3425C in April of last year. This aircraft had been in the same hanger since 1967 and the last annual was September of 1973 (the year I was born). We spend all last summer, took most of the winter off, and starter again this spring getting it ready to fly. The first flight since 1973 was July 29, 2007. I have learned a lot from this web site, I thank everyone for that and I am looking forward to becoming a member. Thank you!

Great news! Sure helps to offset the few we lose

every year.

Hopefully you and your father-in-law can bring her down to the Convention in Branson next summer and show us, and maybe Duluth in '09.

PS: Are you Bruce or Troy (shown as co-owners in the FAA database)?
