Cessna 120-140 Association

I've been working on this 1946 Cessna 140 restoration for 2 years. It started as a project for me and my 16-year-old son. We had a great time working together on it. While I consider myself more of a mechanic (A&P / I.A.), my son is aspiring to be a corporate pilot someday. I thought what a better way to become a pilot, than to first fully understand how the airplane works, plus have some ownership in it! First flight on the airplane happened 1/13/2023. This aircraft had not flown in 25 years and had not had a current annual in 30 years. It's always great to see an old airplane come back to life.
