    You can't go wrong with an Aeronca! I had one for years and loved it! Looking forward to your second video.

    10 years ago I bought a ‘38 Chief. I flew it home with my instructor and soloed in it. Haven’t flow in 5 years, life gets busy with things but am going to make extra effort to get back at it this year. Wonderful plane!

    Love this! Following b/c I'm planning on buying my first plane soon as well (need to build hours). Can't wait to see what you have planned!

    Congrats Pete! What a great sale - love that the owner put you up and knew the plane. I sold my virtually new 4Runner to buy our Aeronca and have zero regrets. I did all my training in SuperCubs and thought I was settling for an old Aeronca to just build time and have had a complete and total blast in it. They grow on you and now ours is part of the family as much as our old dog: th-cam.com/video/PZ_1jmpElfM/w-d-xo.html

    Hello, just found your channel. Thanks for sharing. I am thinking of doing the same thing, who are you using for insurance?
    Thanks, have a great day.

    How long was the plane out of annual?

      Thanks for the comment! A new annual was performed with the sale, I believe it had only lapsed for a month!
