    • Hi all – joined the group a few weeks ago. I bought N7724S ( #424) from Hood River Soaring in February 2022.

    • Hello All
      I just joined. I bought Serial number 390 in an online auction in Apple Valley CA. I am in Burbank CA and will drive out to pick it up after the holiday.

      Looking forward to learn lots from this group. Flew sailplanes in the 90s and bit again about 15 years ago. Also fly a C182p

      • Marc – it is great that you found your 1-26 on an online auction. Was it eBay? I have never thought to look there. BTW – I also fly a Stinson 108-2

    • Finally got our little “Sundbird”, #182, into the air on Saturday. Partners Alice Palmer, Deb Ings and Mark Palmer got in short flights. Still tweaking to do on the seat, the radio and the vario, but she flies!
