The second thread with the additional planes has been merged with this one, and the duplicate pics have been removed. Let's constrain this effort to one thread, and just add the additional planes, instead of duplicating the effort each time.

Captions with the types would also be useful, for those readers who might not be familiar with the different models.

Thank you, I did not know how to delete one so I kind of kept it, but you merged them that fixed everything.
The English had hit upon a splendid joke. They intended to catch me or to bring me down.

NYW's never got the paint: geared-in at FRG right after it arrived.

You mean gear up?

I wonder how that happened  ;D ;D ;D ;D


How about a non-multi rated CAP pilot with a non-CAP flight instructor


Both crankshafts


I did the paperwork on it


I was also at FRG the night it happened

I have been advised that Aeronca 65CA NC34499 was used during WW2 by the Iowa wing. I have a recent photo but have not figured out how to include it into this reply.

You cannot directly post pics. They need to be hosted somewhere else, and then linked to the post.

I miss the T-34.  Our wing was one of the last to hang on to one and I think Wisconsin as well.  I got to have a few hours of stick time in it.  My CFI who was the wing SV let me fly with him.  I got to sit observer in it once.  When I got my SEL add on, I was trying to get the hours to check out in it.  Life happened, ie college and I did not have as much time to gas up a plane as I wanted to.
