Very happy for the result! And, my quick-fix to pull the L-4 worked very well!
This blog documents my first attempt to restore a vintage aircraft back to it´s original US Army style. This bird was built in Lock Haven (PA) with Piper s/n 13157. Delivered to Army Ground Forces in France late December 1944 (mil. s/n is 45-4417). Still trying to find in which division it served, but this bird probably served the allies on their march towards- and into Germany. Rolled out in June 2015 with maiden flight shortly after.

Back from X-Ray corrosion check
Picked up MAV today from the military side of Kjeller airport. They took more than 20 X-Ray images of selected tubes and joints. Conclusion: No significant corrosion! Infact, almost nothing at all. Will try to scan and post some examples of the X-ray images soon.
Very happy for the result! And, my quick-fix to pull the L-4 worked very well!
