Depends on which side of the debate you're on. I think this pretty much confirms what we all already knew. This is problematic for those that have said that the 1948s are the fastest and lightest...that one is the highest altitude and furthest out front. The red is just a turbo boost.

Very nice picture, and very cool to see the three generations all together.

I'll be flying her sometime this week, and was told that I'd be able to rent the airplane solo. That would make me pretty happy, but I fear that allowing me to do that will give others leverage to ask for the same. I spoke with Dorr Aviation last week about financing...I think my wife is getting a 1952 Cessna 170B next year for our anniversary.

Let's just hope she agrees with us!

It's a long story but,... Jamie finally used and enjoyed the mop-bucket I gave her two anniversaries ago. (You'll have to ask her about it at convention.)
