I want to take home the various sections of the aircraft and do as much as I can at home first and then when there is nothing left to do take it back to the airport and start putting it together. I have no idea how long that will take and what maintenance requirements there are on the aircraft. Not being a licensed aircraft engineer (or un-licensed for that matter!) I also need to find an engineering shop that is willing to supervise my work. I guess I will know more when I get it here and can survey it all.

Crazy, I know, but it was an amazing airframe for the money and I work in the avionics business...... Thanks for looking at www.L-29.org I've been trying to get the links to the tech pubs to work. Will call the ISP again asap and get those online. Hopefully one day in the not too distant future we will be able to fly an element of L-29s into OSH.... Have you thought about paint schemes yet?

I am looking forward to the process of getting this aircraft flying again and getting involved in discussion with you all at the same time. I wish I knew about this list a few years back when I first started thinking about the L-29. Still working my way through previous postings and it looks like there is lots of good info collected over the years. Paul H. I have already visited your web site and it looks like our aircraft were sisters. Another one in the batch with mine was AC #53.

I am pretty certain I have copies of most things although the parts manuals interested me greatly. I don't think I have them. Great shots of the un-loading process. I intend to down load them to use for my own unpacking. How much time did your airframe have on it if you don't mind me asking? Did your aircraft come through the people from the U.K or did you have someone else organise it? I have some ideas on colour scheme but it is not the usual military scheme nor is it just a funky civil scheme. It is completely historic for the aircraft and will hopefully still be different and before you try and guess, no it is not tiger stripes! I have seen some shots of L-29's with similar variations so it is not completely un-known.
