So, I went through all my documentation, not with a fine-tooth comb, but pretty thoroughly. It's cool having all the history of my plane. When the plane was manufactured (Dec. 19th, 1946), the tailwheel was (apparently) a Maule SFS-1-4. When the plane was worked on by Doug Combs on May 15th...

I hadn't thought of that until partway into this thread. Will look.

That narrows it down! :D

Yes. It's on my Luscombe. I guess I didn't mention that because it seems irrelevant. In other words, it seems like there's a lot of mixing and matching of these things. Probably should've mentioned in nonetheless. By the way, someone else mentioned a Scott 2000. I don't have a clue.

What tailwheel is this? Forget the little hubcap I'm holding. It's the wrong one...i.e., not for this tailwheel. By the way, I'm trying to find the correct hubcap. The one I bought is for a Maule. It's definitely the wrong one!

I'm reconsidering door and ceiling height. Any reason to go higher than 12 feet? A Cessna Caravan wouldn't fit, but most GA planes would easily fit (8 or 9 feet high). I'm planning on leasing out room for 2 or 3 other planes, but those will almost certainly be planes like a 172, 182, Mooney...

Looks like conditions at Moses Lake Municipal Airport have become such that I would be able to get a bank loan for the hangar: https://columbiabasinherald.com/news/2021/feb/25/ml-airport-set-big-future-growth/

Precisely why I want the woodshop in its own enclosed space. I may not have been clear in stating that. That would be part of the 20-foot chunk at the end. Woodworking room, paint room, bathroom, and office--all separate rooms at one end of the hangar.

$160K for that and 5 years scares me. That's nuts. Also, I'm learning that small towns aren't necessarily run by sane or good people. It's a shame. My understanding is that it's standard for people to own hangars on land they lease from the city/county. I suspect the only exception is if you...

Thanks for all the great info. At least I'll have a clue what the contractors are talking about when I tell them what I want when getting bids. When I say "stick built," I actually mean built with sticks. As in wood. As in 2x4s or 2x6s. Things I can screw cabinets and other stuff to...and that...

Moses Lake is east of the Cascades. It's pretty dry over here, as most of the moisture coming in off the Pacific falls in the mountains before it gets to this side. Something more exciting is that it rains heavily with thunder over here, which I love. Thankfully, though, it's much less humid...

What's the cost of spraying foam compared to fiberglass? Would you use the same thing in the ceiling? The only thing I've seen in the ceiling (as far as spraying) is ground up newspaper (I think). Sounds like the IMPs would be the most expensive.

My wife and I recently moved from Tacoma to Moses Lake (western WA to central WA). Why? Well, Tacoma is becoming a complete ****hole, but just as important, Moses Lake Municipal Airport (W20) has lots! So, I'm planning on leasing a lot and building a hangar. Yippee! Anyhoo, just wanted to tap...

The quote you gave said "episode #24". Maybe I'm missing something. Each title says which part number that video is...and thanks. :)

110?!?!?!? WOW!!!! There were around 20, plus maybe a dozen non-Luscombes.
