Back in Feb. Of this year I purchased this old run out V35A with the intention of doing "a few little things to it" and then just flying it. Well, that has turned into somewhat more than I anticipated. But I do believe that it will be worth it. Since this is my first attempt at posting on BT, please bear with me as I post progress pics.

Oh yeah, I forgot to say that she's also now sporting a 0 time 550 and 0 time prop plus a major gear overhaul. I think I need an Advil now.

David, I sure hope you're coming to the BT/CMI seminar in Fairhope! I would love to see that baby close up.

Wat a nice job of a " fix er upper " Yea I know while you are at it too. those are big AMU's, but you wont regret it. Someone said that to me the other night and said I will be glad I did it in 20 years. Do the math, and I have to hopefully get it back in 10!! unless I can make my ticket run that long before my wife kills me first!!
Enjoy it
