1947 Luscombe 8E - N2045K

I purchased this airplane with some friends in 1975. I gave some of them flight instruction in it and at least one of them got his license using this airplane. It was restored by Oxford, Mississippi resident Herschel Lamb. We bought it from him for $3,250, which was a fortune for Herschel in those days. About a year later, we sold it to a guy I flew with in the National Guard for $4,250. According to the FAA records it is now in California.

Aviation Photos

I have a thing for aircraft. it still amazes me that men can assemble a bunch of parts into something that defies gravity. Some of the old airplanes were super simple conglomerations of wood and fabric, yet still they flew. This particular gallery of aviation photos contains pictures of aircraft I have flown and even a few I've owned.
