N9078E - The view from 78E. Pretty tall mountains when you only have 65hp up front. The high peaks are around 12 thousand feet.With (abundance of) patience,a good Chief will take you any place you care to go.Must be why they have a 5 hour fuel supply. - by S B J

N9078E - 78E shown what it is very good at,off field landing.The chief is a very good and capable plane and I very much enjoyed (most of) the 2K hours I was fortunate to fly them. - by S B J

N9078E @ TCY - This was one of the nicer hangars 78E has enjoyed but it was for only a short time.The City of Tracy for some reason decided to tear it down thus putting four planes outside. Go figure. - by S B J
