RE: Will my old plane be good for anything?
Hi
Well I think its worth a shot. Fix the obvious, do a little pulling and tugging on the airframe to check its sturdiness, get a new radio set and install, Re-due your fuel system (age!), test run the engine, and go for it. Also Join a club and get some help and flying instruction. You meet a lot of nice people at most clubs.
