Clearly a much-loved plane, ready to fly into more blue.
(But isn’t it “original”?)
The plane has only been owned by 3 people including it’s current owner, my cousin. The plane has never been on floats nor has it been worked and the paint is original from the factory. It has never been repainted.
Nice, looks great!
