Not a Cessna. I checked its registration. It is an amateur built single engine fixed wing. Belongs to an individual who lives in St Ignatius. Now you know!
@casablanca Oh, you resourceful girl, you! Thanks for the info! Where, pray tell, did you look to find the registration for this little plane. I knew the number on the side might tell us something, but we simply Googled the difference between Piper Cubs and Cessnas, having flown in both. We concluded this was a Cessna because of the upper as opposed to lower wings configuration. Anyway, this one has the configuration one would typically find on a Cessna.
@onewing Oh, Babs, I'm sure it's quite solid! We have flown in planes like this many times during our years of working at the hunting lodge in Alaska. :-) Going to try to post a photo of our youngest grandson sitting in a plane that he got to go up in with an experienced pilot through a program called Young Eagles. That plane was built by the pilot and he named it Experimental! LOL Made this Nana a bit nervous but all was well! I'll see if I can get the photo up here on this thread...
@onewing Okay! Can't figure out how to post the photo in this thread but, if you're interested in seeing it I will post today in my Extras #2 album. :-)
Standard look up for registered aircraft. If it were not registered, it would be an illegal build.
Always been interested in ships and aircraft in our family!
