Very nice looking Chief. Is that original time....1191 hours?? I've never flown a Chief. Have flown a Taylorcraft which is something like it. At least it has a wheel instead of a stick. Do you have it on 'owner maintenance'?? Wish we had that in the states. Gets harder all the time to find someone that really knows tube and fabric, rather than spam cans and jets. Luckily I have a good IA that will work with me and I want to take care of him.

I'll have to look in the logs to see if I can find the discrepency in the TTAF hrs. Says 1190 but logs indicate 1350 or so now.
