Three Generations of Nickisch Pilots just returned with the newest addition to the Coyote Air fleet. Dirk, Willard and Bremner flew the Stinson 108 from Texas to Alaska. She is a beauty and very retro with lovely wood paneled interior.

That’s a fine looking plane, I can’t wait to see it in a week or so!

I have just found out that you have bought N60F a 108-3 Stinson.
I am looking at the picture and it brings back a lot of memories.
You see I owned this plane in the late 60′s and early 70′s and I have a lot of hours in this plane. It looks just like it did wnen I owned it.
I would if you could keep me informed of how it is doing.
The last I hard it was tied up in a court case and I’ve never hard back from the party involved in the suit, But if you would keep me in formed.
Thanks

This is a facebook album of the airplane N60F when our family owned it.
I am so happy to see N60F alive and adventuring in “Alaska’s remote arctic region.”
Tommy B. R. Thompson bought the airplane in late 1965 or early 1966.
N60F, a Stinson “Flying Station Wagon,” was originally owned by a member of the “Flying Farmers.”
We made many flights along the gulf coast of Texas and Mexico, sometimes landing on a remote beach of Padre Island to fish for red snapper.
N60F opened up a whole new world for us.
I touched the outside of it. I peered inside. I want to go for a ride in this beautiful bird – with my camera, of course. This plane couldn’t go to a more deserving family of fliers.
