Hi everyone
Acquired 7505F, a '69 7ECA, last December. Since then did quite a bit of work on it:
- New belly stringers and fabric (stringer were broken)
- New Lycoming cylinder
- Avionics upgrade to IFR: 2 Garmin G5s, Garmin GNC355, + some other instrument changes to get IFR cert
- New Plane Power alternator, and upgrade wiring as per ACA service letter
Plane already had ACA metal wings
Fabulous plane to both fly and work on. Resuming aerobatics instruction (previously trained a bit in Super D's)
I'm splitting time in PA (KOQN) and MA (6B6) - and tour around quite a bit. The 7ECA is not fast but has very long legs, and great useful load. See pic with my CarryMe bikes - these bikes are great, and I can easily put 2 of them in the back, for me & my passenger to enjoy touring around.
Looking to meet some members in the North East.
