Sun-N-Fun

Hello everyone!

Will there be a Taylorcraft showing at Sun-N-Fun this year? It's my first time to go and I hope I'll be able to take lots of photos to help with my restoration of a '46 BC12-D!

Hope to see lots there,
Dale

Dale,
You might have a chance to see more BC12-D examples at the 2015 Central Texas Taylorcraft Fly-in that weekend. As I understand it, there have actually been low Taylorcraft numbers at SNF the past few years. Just a thought. We'd love to have another Taylorcraft tribesman to join us.

I agree with Terry. I am in South Carolina so not too far. Very few Taylorcrafts are normally there. Don't want to get into the politics of Sun N Fun vs some where else and would go for perhaps a day if I had an RV. Just my opinion but Sun N Fun is not all that great anymore. It all started with the Storm some years back,their treatment of attendees airplanes in the aftermath and a weak economy in recent years. It may be better this year. It is a great place to spend money

John had a great talk with Dan at stewarts and went to his seminar spent the week helping Susan prall at the franklin engine co. booth and the 4 cylende franklins will be back on the market this year in the 100 and 120 horse power models and will bolt right on the Tcraft continental mount.Also the company from Poland is bulding the 220 HP engines again will be here in the states in 3 months also parts for 150 and 165 hp engines.As far as the Taylorcraft at S N F the guy that does the news letter and the cub news letter was all that was there and i did not see any airplanes.

Re: Sun-N-Fun

Great! I didn't think of you heading down there.... I'd have had you try to locate Perry..you two would get a kick out of eachother! Glad to hear there actually IS something happening with Franklin....now if someone would just do the same with Taylorcraft...........
