Locally-based 1979 Cessna 414A "Chancellor" with new tires at Reid Hillview Airport, San Jose, CA! My favorite airplane on the field looking one step closer to being airworthiness again.

N121BD @ KRHV - Never... Never in my 6 years of seeing this plane at Reid Hillview did I ever think it would fly, let alone taxi again. This was an amazing sight to see this C414A taxi for the first time since 2009, and a huge shout out to TradeWinds for fixing it up! - by Chris Leipelt

N121BD @ KRHV - Locally-based (not for long) 1979 Cessna 414A interior at Reid Hillview Airport, San Jose, CA. The interior is very nice for sitting in the same spot since 2009. Tradewinds started it up the other day, and I heard that it ran pretty good for rotting! - by Chris Leipelt

N121BD @ KRHV - This beautiful Cessna 414 has unfortunately been sitting here for years in the south tie-downs. It was for sale in 2010 but nobody purchased it. They tried to sell it to Barry Bond's brother. - by Chris L.

N121BD - Locally-based 1979 Cessna 414A in a new parking spot on the Tradewinds ramp for maintenance. It will be a big job to fix it up since it hasn't flown since 2009, but I heard that TW started it up the other day, and it ran OK with the same engines. - by Chris Leipelt
