My good friend just bought a Stinson and we plan on having some great fun with it. I know that alot of you guys have a ton more time around them then I do. Is there any advice or tips that should be passed on to him? Thanks.

Great plane. The only thing unusual is the gear that walks out when landing. Just "plant it" so both sides walk out equal and it is a big kittie cat.

Good luck with it.

I have a freind with one, he hasn't flown it in years. He always complained about the fuel consumption.
Still, a neat airplane...I'd like a 108-3 with the "Station Wagon" option.

I figure if you wanted my opinion on items unrelated to this forum, you'd ask for it.

My Dad taught some of my kids in his 108-2 Station Wagon. Roll them on one wheel at a time, three point it, push it up on the mains for a wheelie, they're all just as easy as can be. Slow, stately, great sounding engine, so smooth. I still fly it sometimes.
