Photo Comment

In March 2006 when I last visited Chandler Memorial there was a mechanic who was working on this aircraft to get it airworthy for a ferry flight to a new owner in Idaho. He told me the airplane was in very poor condition he doubted it could be made airworthy for a reasonable cost. Apparently he was right because no further progress has been made on restoration since my visit over a year ago.
