N9078E - The difference between the top pic.and bottom (in 1977) is the 15 years that it sat in our garage. My dad never saw 78E fly again. Thanks Dad for the 2K (enjoyable) hours I was fortunate to fly this fine little plane. - by S B J

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
