Back from my first trip to Oshkosh, wow what an experience. Spent just 4 days there and there is no way you would have time to see everything.
Can't wait to go back next year.
This blog is to chronicle my attempt to restore a 1972 Piper Cherokee 140e. This plane is the 'dog' of the airport and has been sitting untouched for 10 years. I purchased the plane and am attempting to restore it to flyable condition.

New Glass
So the plastic "glass" window on the dash instrument cluster was cracked. I finally got around to replacing it. Easy peasy job but if anyone is curious as to what that panel looks like without the plastic cover here are the pics!
Interesting the 2 screws also hold the cluster securely to the dash, snugged those screws back up night a tight so everything is all firm and held in place.

KFLO
Had a great (but hot) trip to KFLO for my BFR on Wednesday. Quick little trip down to KEQY -> KFLO and back. Not only got my BFR knocked out but got more work with controlled airspace.
