Aircraft N9078E Photo

N9078E, 1946 Aeronca 11AC Chief, C/N: 11AC-710
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.
