This plane was advertized for sale localy here in Manie last year and I went to see it. Workmanship over all looked decent. It is side-by-each seating but it is a tight squeze. Mother better be real tiny. I believe I measured it at 34 inch wide at the elbows. It has a door of sorts on the left side. Also has a shelf that runs along the bottom edge of the panel that is a X brace beween the two sides of the fuselage. The cabanes are canted inwards with no wing center section, though as best I could tell it is a two piece wing. The word was that it is a bit hot to handle with the short wings. I was also told that with the wider frontal profile it is a bit dragier than she ought to be and could actually use a bit more in the HP dept. michael silviusscarborough, maine ----- Original Message -----
