Top 3 Aircraft

[Bob Dingley]

#1 is the Huey military and civil versions. 8000+ hours over 50 years from the UH-1A to the 214ST.
#2 would be the Sikorsky S-76..did flight testing in serial number 760001.
#3 is any of the Champ, Citabria, Decathlon family. I have owned, rebuilt, recovered, 6 of them.

How about that. I too have about 7,000 in A model to ST & most in between. 760001 was N276AL and was ditched 80 miles south of Galveston in 1980. Found by an oil company's ROV in the 90's. More than 3'000' of water and looked to be in good shape. I logged 3,000+ in 760002 N376AL. Like flying a haunted house because it too had been ditched and rcvred.

I won't list all the planes I have flown and enjoyed, but the most fun to fly would be the Quad City Challenger 2 place clipped wing special. The single place Challengers are also a blast to fly.

Long may you fly!

Pacer! (Because I OWN it!)

#1 is the Stearman -- gentle in the air, and not bad on the ground if you're proficient.
#2 is the Schweizer 2-32 -- fully aerobatic, very versatile, roomy.
#3 is hard to say -- the Great Lakes would be it if it weren't so cramped. Grumman Tiger comes close, too. Cessna 180/170/185 and several others (including most Citabrias) are there, also. And some I only have half an hour or so in I'm not counting. Guess I can't really choose among them.

1) Stinson 108-2 Voyager - Lots of good family memories flying this one around. Stable, roomy, fun.
2) Aeronca 7BCM Champ - It had a 90HP engine + climb prop. Now, that was fun!
3) Glad to see the Junior Ace mentioned (thanks, pacerpilot!). So, although I haven't flown it, I'll give it a spot.
