Super Navion first startup since long term storage.
Super Navion first startup since long term storage.

This Navion was owned in the 1990s by my father.

He then sold it to a old high school acquaintance from Long Island and they became fast friends.

The aircraft was upgraded with many alterations including the McNichols tubular engine mount, the TSIO550-B twin turbo and the Hartzell three blades propeller.

She was run and then stored in Chino California due to a illness and sadly resulting in a passing away of a Great Man!!!

Purchasing the plane from the family I had it trailered back out to South Carolina in 2020.

A year later finally performed first starting, which is shown in this video.
