1983 Restoration Photos

This Fairchild 24 was completly restored by Mike Huffman and Sport Aviation Specialties in 1983. The airplane has since survived a flood only being partially restored in 2006. Because of the high-quality restoration done in 1983, only minimal work was required after the flood.
