Sorry, guys, bu I'm just an old guy who's not on Facebook, so I apologize if this is covered there. But are there any T-18 events taking place at OSH this year? I'm there all week and hope to visit with some of you around your planes, etc. I'm sure you can't miss me...I'l be the short old man with silver hair (not much!) and beard! Probably one of about 200,000 other old codgers with the same description! I'm the guy with the S-18 completed in 1994, flown 22.1 hours that year and then parked in a hangar in Duncan, OK. That's 22.1 TT on the airframe, new O-360 and McCauley constant speed prop. I'm finishing cleaning up the air frame, making some repairs due to the mouse hotel that was well established over the years. Bore scope inspection of the cylinders showed perfect "brand new" condition. Had to clean the points, but after new oil filter/oil and fresh 100LL, it fired right up and ran like it had flown the day before. Prop cycled normal. The riding lawn more ran great on the 30 year old 100LL (about 10 gallons) I drained. The only wires in the entire plane chewed by the mice were the wires in the left side of the center section for the left wing position and strobe lights. You probably didn't want to know that much about it...sorry about that. Thanks in advance for the info. Steve H |

Thanks, Bruce for the info. I'll have to go to this. Guess there' s no lunch get together planned. Been a lot of rising creeks around here in Oklahoma lately! Steve H |
