  • 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 by S B J
  • N9078E - Don't know where, don't know when - by Unknown by Unknown
  • N9078E - 78E & Champ 93E doing 360s (8K feet level) to gain altitude needed to get over the Sierras. Aeroncas are very good planes, but with 65hp, they are not eager climbers. There was not any lift from Mother Nature so the Aeroncas had to do it on their own. - by S B J by S B J
  • 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 by S B J
  • N9078E @ Q59 - Planes also need to be worked on. I know exactly (almost) how many hours I have in the air, but how many spent working on them I will never know, only that its been a lot! 78E at Fremont airport. - by S B J by S B J @ Q59
