I have about 8 hours in L-39s teaching formation (a while back) I have 2 flights (:30 each in the back seat) in L-29s, one with the standard engine and one with the J-12. I prefer the L-29 with the J-12 in it. I really do honest to God like the L-29's looks better than the L-39. (Yea I'm the jock in high school who took a girl with buck teeth, a crooked eye, slightly over weight, to my senior prom, but what can I say?) Markets go up and down so will the price of L-29s AND L-39s. In the end its all relative isn't it? There is no shame in this. Your west coast fly-in is a good idea. But you guys on the east side can do the very same thing. All it takes is one of you to think up a good spot to go to. I know some of you on this list belong to RPA and are familiar with AYS (Waycross GA). That would be an excellent place for a get together because it just about dead center in the south east region of the US. But there are other places. What about UIN Quincy, IL, NE of St Louis? Big warbird restorer there, nice big runways, plenty of room on and around the airport. Brain storm it. These get together's are the best ways to work out problems with and about your airplanes. There are many ways to skin a cat as there are cat skinners, you just need to meet all the cat skinners, same with airplanes. Airplanes fly by the same laws of physics but how does one approach those laws? Which ways are best? Believe me gentlemen 99% of the time it is matter of personal taste. Do I own a L-29? No, but I'm a retired airline guy who's just lost his retirement and may not be able to keep what I've got. Count your blessings.

Waycross would be a great place, unfortunately there are scant few 29's in this part of the country. I've been wanting to host a flyin out of X35 (Dunellon, FL) since they have the cheapest Jet-A in the area, and the Yankee AF there would be very agreeable to letting us use their facilities. I've wanted to host an RPA venue there also.

I have 2 zero time overhauled engines with log book remaining out of 11. None were any better than the others. They each have the tail pipe. When you open the fiberglass storage pods they are wrapped in paper and sealed in plastic with desiccant moisture absorbing bags stuffed in them and they look brand spanking new. As Pete Taylor in Red Bluff, CA put it: "They look like a brand new Rolex Watch!" 1 went to Marvin Mixon who just came to Reno yesterday and bought one for his FOD damaged engine in Houston. 1 shipped to Southern California for a guy that is putting a L-29 together that was imported with a bad engine. 2 have been delivered to northern California 1 shipped to central California 1 shipped to Illinois 1 shipped to Las Vegas I'm putting a new one in my L-29 and keeping one as a spare (2 engines in Reno) Only two remaining and all of the 11 engines. 1973 1982 The years of manufacture of the engines were: 1961 SOLD 1970 SOLD 1971 SOLD 1972 SOLD 1972 SOLD 1972 SOLD 1973 1975 SOLD 1977 SOLD 1982 1983 SOLD Interested parties can contact me at my email: _SD737@AOL.COM_ (mailto:SD737@AOL.COM) ________________________________ Message 10 ____________________________________ Time: 10:23:07 AM PST US From: SD737@aol.com Subject: Re: L29-List: M701-500C Engines! --> L29-List message posted by: SD737@aol.com Hi Noel, I would guess shipping would be approx. $500 from Reno to Texas.
