Todd,

Years ago I found my Dad's Stinson in a barn in Arkansas. Dad owned the airplane in 1953-4. It had been wrecked, but I was able to buy it. I found that the logs had been stolen out of the airplane when it was owned by a guy in Florida. An AP had re-constituted the logs.

Said all that to say this: I got on the FAA website and using the N number of the airplane found that I could order a CD that had all of the previous logs and data, all the way back to 1946 when the plane was built. I think it was only $10.00 to get all that. I may be wrong on that number; but it wasn't very much.

It was neat, because I found the date Dad bought the airplane and also sold it.

Anyway, getting that info from the FAA may be of some value and help.

Regards
Rodney
