Patience oh bored one. I always light up in 5-6 weeks from now. I have 2 stoves that do not work and I bought another one that I will be reporting on. The mighty black rocks will rise again. My guess, winter will be a beitch and so the cycle will start again. Meanwhile the impending end of the country is consuming our waking thoughts but that preoccupation will end soon.

yeah, I was trying to buy another stove myself but just couldn't swing an 18 hr. round trip from noon on Sat. thru 6 Sun. evening.

nothing could make me happier than winter coming early and staying long. the old " well, i'll have to go to the house to take care of the stove first.........." gets me out of alot of tight spots. LOL

Almost HB! It's a Aeronca L-3B. It has a 100HP Continental O-200 and is basically a military version of the venerable Aeronca Champ.
