Looking for N8138C [Archive] - ShortWingPipers.Org

Hello,

I was talking to my grandpa the other day and he went through all of his old logbooks and I wrote down all of the N-numbers of his old airplanes and I am in the process of looking them up. His third airplane was a 1954 PA-22 135 N8138C. I can look up the owners name and address on the FAA website but it does not tell me whether it is still flying or rotting away somewhere. I was just curious if anyone knows anything about it. I would love to show my grandpa some pictures of what it looks like now.

Thanks,

Zac Weidner

It's not flying...a quick search shows this posted on the SWPC classifieds back in April...

Thanks for doing that research for me. I didn't think about looking there. It's too bad that it's not flying now but at least it's not in a junk yard somewhere and hopefully someone will get it flying again.

All I did was google the N number, it was about the 5th link.

I guess I just never looked down there. Thanks again.
