Spartan Executive Restoration - NC4444
Being that I am addicted to vintage airplane pictures my buddy Keith helped feed my addiction by sending me pictures this weekend from the heavily vintage airplane populated airport in Creve Coeur Airport near St. Louis. As soon as he sent the first picture my mind turned toward the Spartan that is under restoration on the field. Keith did not disappoint! A few minutes later my iPhone had multiple Spartan pictures to scroll through. Serial number 18, Spartan 7W, NC4444 is being restored by John Cournoyer. It has been on a slow but steady pace the last few years and it looking very nice! As I say quite often in this blog... I can't wait to see this one in the air! Thanks to Keith Moody for the pictures and thank you John Cournoyer for saving and restoring this rare Spartan Executive.
