Larry
Tiller
Gadsden, AL.
I have owned Ernie's T-craft (N95901) for over a year now and been
planning to join but a lot of personal problems & a little bit of
work gets in the way. I have finally cleared enough land to create my
own landing strip here, near Gadsden, AL. Not real smooth but the
T-craft takes it in stride. And as soon as I get sides on my hanger I
will move my project ('41 N33943) into it and try to finish.
