Love the 337

Hi Tommy,
As Herb said, you love them or hate them. I to have the love of the 337. I purchased the 1978 337H, 9 years ago and love to fly the safest aircraft ever built. I to put a great amount of cash in restoring my bird. With dual inline engines, you may have miner failures that are not life threatning, as long as you do your fuel managing properly. Most 337 crashes are pilot error on running out of fuel or flying into bad weather or being careless pilots. Very few where aircraft failures. As long as you maintain a possitive attitude on the maintance, and you are the right person to do that. The rest of us that have to pay for every hour of work do not have the advantage you have. So go forward with the work. Once completed, you will have a masterpiece like Herb has. You will enjoy many years of enjoyable, safe flights. Tell the people that never enjoyed the 337 looks or safety in flight to go pound sand because they know nothing about what a safe aircraft really is. Safe flying, Dale
