N3907F s/n 36807
The 1958 model 4-place is renowned for its visibility. Its cowling slopes down like a modern ag aircraft allowing an unparalleled view among aircraft of its type. It is configured with a straight tail with no rear window. Already excellent maneuverability and comfort at low speeds is enhanced by a full Horton STOL kit; it lands at a slow walk! For training purposes, students like its ample power and performance at our 3400' elevation airport.
ENGINE
The power plant is a Continental 0300 six cylinder producing 145 very smooth horsepower. OK for flight instruction any time of the day at Quincy's mountain airport.
