gwav8or Posted September 20, 2022 Report Share Posted September 20, 2022 Hey all! This last weekend, I brought my '67 F to her new home. We closed the deal on Aug 20. I flew about 9 hours on two weekends, took two weeks off due to previously scheduled events. Flew 3 more on Saturday and flew solo on Sunday. Feels great! It took 12+ hours to finally feel comfortable with landings. But the more I fly this wonderful machine, the more I like it! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure you’ll enjoy the F, I have had mine for 8 years and she’s been great! Been from Florida to Washington state and has hauled my wife and kids on many great adventures. I hope you’re as lucky! welcome, Drew 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My C still has the brackets, just nothing in between. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
