Do Not Fly


"Do Not Fly," the red sign says. OK, I won't... :-) This is the fuselage of an old Taylorcraft L2-M aircraft built for the military in Ohio, back in 1944. It is what is called a "basket case." That doesn't mean it won't fly again. John and I went to a small airport near Rochester, where an enthusiastic group of pilots restore old aircraft. The owner of this airplane is talking about having it flying by spring! Apparently he will have have a lot of help from volunteers in working on the restoration. It was fun to hang out with a bunch of pilots in a hangar, telling stories.
