I saw on Facebook where the Bellanca factory is looking for N numbers of planes and people and pictures, still flying them, just thought I would post this out there.

Today I will have 50 hours in the 14-13 this year what a great little plane these are, sure was worth all the time spent getting it back into the air, I hope to get another 50 on before the snow sets in. Would love to go to Oshkosh but until I get my bride to be able to see others a little...

What are most getting on there 150 franklin's for fuel burn? I have made a couple longer trips to check and it seems as I am getting about 7 1/2 gallon per hour burn at 3/4 throttle.

I flew the the old Cruisair to kokomo and back today a three hour flight,the longest flight on the new engine, 9.25 fuel burn at 4500 ft. sure love thes old Franklins!

I have about eight sheets of STC's numbers that came with my aircraft, do not know if the club has all of these on file, some one ran these off years ago they where for 14-9, 14-13, 14-19's anything from fuel pumps to fiberglass resining a wing not that I would do that but some one had it approved.

What a great little plane it is to fly, I may have spent four and a half years on it but today it was all worth while, I got to take off and land today for the first time in this old airplane. What a rewarding thing it was to be able to fly one of these plane for the first time and experiance...

Yesterday was a big day for me, I finally was able to get 86802 back into the air, need to do a little rigging today to get it to fly straight, then I can get my ten hours of time with Tom Wright so I can fly it by myself. Thanks to all that has helped make this happen. I hope every one that is...

I want to thank Robert Szego and Dan Cullman in helping me with prints and other info for getting my Airworthy Certificate back from FAA on 86802, what a can of worms can happen with an older aircraft when not documented correctly. Thanks again, Joe Bell, I hope to finally get to fly it this...

I need a 337 for a McCauley prop on a 150 franklin for my 14-13? any one? Thanks Joe

I came across an STC for changing out the wobble pump for a Bendix electric one on a 14-13, my plane already has it done to it and I thought maybe some one else may want or need it for there's. Thanks, Joe

The heading says it all, the book says Lockheed No. 5 I couldn't find any reference on the computer for that? I did not know if 5606 should be replacement or a Hydralic jack oil? Thanks

Is anyone flying to Fun and Sun with a Cruisair? My insurance company wants me to have some seat time in one to insure me, I have my tail wheel endorsement just not make and model. Thanks Joe

As I have been repainting inspection covers, peto tube I am finding part of the N number on all my parts, stamped or penciled on them, Where these all built one at a time? Or is this how they kept track of each part for each plane as being built?

The owner of the 14-19 called me this morning and said the price could be negotiable if it is not parted out and returned to flight, he would really like to see it fly again. This is the one that is for sale on the Bellanca- Champion sight. I have nothing to do with this sale, I had just stopped...

I went to look at a 14-19 today that is for sale, what a shame it has set so long and the bad repairs that had been done on the fabric work. What a great plane it had been years ago but the lack of a little maintenance has really added up over the years.

I have been looking at several Bellanca's and some have the wings taped to the rear of the plane and others have a foam strip there, the front has the filler strip. This plane was taped between the two but I do not know what is the correct way? My AP wanted me to find out. Thanks for any help. Joe

I heard about a Bellanca 14-13 for sale up in Lansing Michigan area recently so I stopped by to look at it yesterday, what a shame it has sat so long, I stepped up to look inside and thought my foot was going through the wing. He had told me the engine was rebuilt but never ran before I stopped...
