The FAA shows 1158S to have some questions about its registration however it
also says that it was sold to a Stanley Custard. I believe this is the same
gentleman who gave me a demo ride back in '02 when I was shopping around for
a plane to buy. It was a Model 5 and it was in less than ideal condition
back then, but I still went for a ride in it. The plane had an old run out
Continental, no doors and no radio or intercom so who needs a head set. And
when we landed after about a 20 min. flight the tail wheel broke. Believe it
or not I was still impressed with the plane.

Looks pretty straight forward. Airplanes don't fly well without fuel. As a
safety inspector I can tell you there are two main things that kill pilots.
Running out of fuel and flying into weather. the moment you start to wonder
it is time to but it on the groung.
Does anyone have more on this?
