Comments:
      I have been a full or part owner of this airplane for over 38 years, and it has been based at RUT (Vermont) since new in 1975 until 2009 when it was moved to BTV (Burlington) and later stored in Midlebury (6B0).  Well maintained by SD Air in Rutland and J&M Aviation in Middlebury for the past 38 years and always hangared.  We used it in 1997 to tour Alaska with a motorcycle in the back and camping gear fitted to the plane.  See ALASKA TRIP for pictures. 

July, 2008 - avionics upgrade to include the GPS430W, the STec 55x autopilot and the King HSI. The ADF was removed and an Airgizmo dock for the Garmin 496 was installed in is place. 

September, 2011- new paint (as well as registration change from N35948 to N246VT) and refurbished interior.

February, 2012 - engine was overhauled to zero time by Mattituck, a new 3 bladed prop was installed along with a new JPI 830 Engine Analyzer.  The Ducati that I took in the plane to Alaska was sold and we purchased a Yamaha 225 and adapted it for quick loading into the cabin.  The plane is owned by CBW, Ltd. and ownership shares are represented by stock in the corporation.

March 2015 - major avionics update including G500, GTN750, GTN650, GMA 35 Audio panel, GTX 325 Transponder, GDL ADS-B Transceiver, and other devices, done by Bill Hanf at Green Mountain Avionics, in Middlebury, Vermont.

Summer, 2017: The plane and motorcycle were again flown to Alaska.  This time I flew it up and flew back
commercially so that my partner and his wife could fly it around Alaska and back to Vermont.

Mattituck "Zero" Time Overhaul
This 225 cc Yamaha motorcycle has been modified with a quick disconnect front wheel, temporary small wheel, fold up handlebars, special kickstand and other changes to permit quick ramp loading/unloading into the rear cabin, where it fits on the side and preserves much of the rest of the cabin space.
