I got the opportunity to work on a Beaver, reliving the past and better yet I got to fly it around. There are somethings I will never forget and the sound of a P+W 985 is one of them.
I am not sure what I am doing but Bentley Air just moved hangars, what becomes vividly clear is how much stuff you have. But in the end if you ever get there it is worth it.
This Cub was built by a friend of mine who has built at least 10 cubs, he is getting along in years and this will be his final build. I am in the process of doing the final inspection, tweaking this and that. I rebuilt the engine a few years ago, a C-85-F, we weighed…
We had a chance to fly with one of customers from Alaska and take him to a few of our local spots we like go. Had a great time.
Had to go down to San Francisco to repair a Beaver, life is hard on a plane that has to sit day after day in the salt mash of the Bay. Thanks to my side kick and son we hammered it out and the customer was happy. Road repairs to plane and truck.
