  • 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 @ 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
