A friend is looking for an aircraft that his grandfather built. Apologies if this is the wrong place to post this.
They think it was last around Gainesville, TX

Thanks! I'll pass that on to them. I think this is most likely in a pile in a barn somewhere, but who knows?

Hey, there's only 16,000 folks in Gainesville, TX.....how many barns and hangars could there be? - lol - But they should check out any and all aviation businesses/airports etc. in town.

And ideally seek out the oldest people they can find at each place or coffee shop onsite.
