Hi all,
Back into aircraft ownership, this time I was able to go whole four months without an airplane ! After owning couple Cessnas, I got hold of a '56 PA-23-150 project, completely stock except for newer radios, cleveland wheels, and the (Horton ?) tips. My friend and I are going through a partial restoration, its been a lot of fun. Engines and props are good, had to do the flap torque tube AD, all new tires, generator bracket & belt, rebuild two struts, bunch of new seals, o-rings, etc, etc. So... just curious if there are any other Apache pilots in the NG. All the old timers at the field stop by the hangar periodically and reminisce about flying these machines. We really have it apart and I've been nothing short of impressed by the workmanship and effort that must have gone into building the thing. I've never flown twins (ok, this is more of a two-part 300hp engine ;-), but after doing a ground runup with fistful of throttles, there is really no going back, is there... Martin |
