That sounds like N78BS, Bernie Schnanowski's bird (just look at me name

Are you sure they didn't say that it's been flying 26years, which is
right about the age of N78BS I believe.
Bernie was a member of a Seattle-area EAA Chapter when I joined about
twenty years ago. His plane was flying then, and he'd originally completed
it in New York before he moved to Seattle. The FAA lists the plane as a
1980 model.
The current owner is the builder's son...I think he's named Bernie, as
well.

Bernie senior is building a Sonex (I think) right now. Bernie junior
now flies N78BS down around Atlanta.
