New Vintage Airplane Owner
Hello everyone,
Started flying in the 70s with most time in Cessna and Piper tri-gear aircraft.
Have not owned an airplane for over 10 years. Found a 1948 PA-17 Vagabond for sale earlier this year and purchased it last March.
Having plenty of fun flying the Vag with C-85, metal propeller, and no electric system!!!!! Flying off of a grass strip in North Carolina.
