  • 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 - 78E- Made a quick stop at Eagleville airport (now closed ) in NE Calif. 78E flew over 10 hours this day. It was a long day! Easy to understand (headache around hour 8) how the term airknocker came about. - by S B J by S B J
