    75 Grumman traveler purple passion

    Im looking into getting a 75 grumman traveler. I just found out it has a repair on the flap trailing edge due to delamination there several years ago. I live in the San Francisco bay area and would have the plane stored outside. is this a problem? should I move forward with the purchase?

    Tiger maintenance

    Ok here is another question. If the engine is running well, and all compression and leak down tests maybe even bore scope inspections of cylinders are good, does it need an overhaul at TBO?

    Another what plane thread

    Im looking to get another plane. I used to own a 260 Comanche and I loved it. It fit the mission perfectly however being an airplane no longer being produced had its issued with maintenance cost and eventually I was not flying enough to justify keeping it. Now I'm ready for another go at it but...
