Crash Site ! ... Don't know if the plane was involved in a crash. I believe it
more likely was just a victim of a common garden variety Hurricane.
A local native girl was asked about it , but she responded only with sign language.

I wasn't reading this thread, so might be repeating what others have said.
=0A=0A=0AIt looks like someone put together Drifter parts and did a lot of
modifications.- The windshield is a lot higher than a Drifter windshield,
and the instrument panel/pod is significantly different. It seems to have
flaps - a modification that Phil Lockwood sells. I don't see the fuselage p
an behind the gas tank - but that might be because of the high grass. Yet i
t looks as though it ends right at or beneath the gas tank - unlike the sin
gle seat Drifter. The molded seat certainly looks familiar - exactly the sa
me as mine. And I'm puzzled by the location of the angled downtubes - it ma
y just be the camera angle, but they look as though they're in front of the
seat - unlike my single seat Drifter, which has the same shaped downtubes
behind the seat. And yet it doesn't look as though there's room for another
seat in front of the pictured one. The keel arrangement looks like the one
on my Drifter.=0A=0A=0ASo my guess is that it's parts from a Drifter, with
perhaps parts from other planes, and a lot of mods.=0A=0AArty Trost=0AMaxa

Inland Northwest Metallogical Services Inc. 16203 e. Marietta Ave Spokane
Wa. 800-379-2231 or 509 922-7663 [Dan] Cost was 75.00 They vertically dip
to cool and did come out straight. But no guarantees. It is best to
provide a hard cardboard cylinder for shipping. Turn around time was one
week. Cost was $75. plus shipping. All holes must be pre-drilled.
Andy Slinkard in Washington is finishing his Firestar and contacted me
about someone to heat treat the legs. The above is what he found. Some have
sent them off to be heat treated and they have come back with a bend in
them, which is almost impossible to get out. These guy's apparently hang
them which does not put any stress on them. The hardness came out to 47-49
Rockwell.
