The owner texted a few days ago and said he'll call me to talk about it on Friday this week.

Both G models. Both with off airport landings in their past (triggered the engine upgrades?) | | | | Joined: Jan 2018 Posts: 88 Likes: 6 Member | Member Joined: Jan 2018 Posts: 88 Likes: 6 | And if the repairs were done properly probably better now than they were prior to the events. Many times in doing Major repair work discrepancies are found that would never be seen with out major disassembly as is usually required after an incident. Damage history is a Stigma. | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 9,814 Likes: 127 Member/7500+posts | Member/7500+posts Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 9,814 Likes: 127 | And the 150hp conversion leads to many more off-airport landings... Intentional ones, of course.  ![[Linked Image from i152.photobucket.com]](https://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s196/150150TD/Alvord%202010/100_0819.jpg) [ s152.photobucket.com] ![[Linked Image from i152.photobucket.com]](https://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s196/150150TD/2010%20Flying/IMG_5708.jpg) [ s152.photobucket.com] ![[Linked Image from i152.photobucket.com]](https://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s196/150150TD/2010%20Flying/Airplane%20Camping/Camp174.jpg) [ s152.photobucket.com]

A green G model with the 0320 engine. He will send me more pictures. He performed an engine over-haul himself, with the sign-off and help of his mechanic. I don't know what to think about that. It's got 25 hours since overhaul. It has old radios in the earlier panel design. He said the cowling paint is rattle-can Hunter Green, but matched OK. | | |
