1946 Stinson 108-1Single-Engine Piston Aircraft • Caldwell, ID, USA

This 1946 Stinson 108-1, registered as N97781, is a well-documented example that underwent a complete restoration in 2001, including the installation of all new fabric. At that time, it was converted to the upgraded 108-3 wings and airframe under a field approval. The airframe has a low total time of 2,100 hours, and the powerplant is a 150 hp Franklin engine with 777 hours since major overhaul (1972) and 400 hours since a top overhaul in 2002. The airframe was also modified during restoration to accept the 165 hp engine, though that engine was never installed.

The aircraft is equipped with a Valcom 760 com radio, a King KT 76A transponder,...
