		<title>Continental C-85 Inventory</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
One of our side projects requires some engine work, so when it was time to go looking for Continental parts, we decided to do an inventory of C-85 parts on hand. Turns out we have quite a bit more than we thought.

We&#8217;re going through everything and deciding what to send out to have cleaned up [...]]]></description>

		<title>Stinson Cabin Restoration Moving Along Nicely</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
We have been busy working on the Stinson lately and much of the recent work has focused on the cabin. Even though much of the wood was in bad condition on the airplane, most of it has been in good enough shape to use as templates for the new material.

The doors have been particularly tricky [...]]]></description>

		<title>New Piper Clipper PA-16 Page And More Photos</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well after a long delay, we're finally getting around to putting up the Piper Clipper photos we took earlier in the fall. It was another one of those beautiful evenings with great light and a great looking airplane. This is the airplane that won Grand Champion for classic aircraft <a href="http://www.arlingtonflyin.org/Judging/Judging2009.cfm">this year at the Arlington Fly In</a> (the museum's <a href="http://skagitaero.com/aircraft/ryan-sta/">Ryan ST-A</a> and <a href="http://skagitaero.com/aircraft/mooney-mite-m-18c/">Mooney Mite</a> also won awards).]]></description>

		<title>The Reliant Door Tells The Story</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ever since getting the fabric off of the Stinson SR-9C Reliant we acquired last winter, it's been no secret that there is a lot of work to be done on this airplane. Most of the wood work will have to be redone and there's a fair amount of metal work as well.]]></description>

		<title>Covering The Feathers On The Piper PA-15</title>

		<title>Piper PA-15 Vagabond Is Covered</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the airplanes that has been sitting patiently in the restoration hangar is the museum's Piper PA-15 Vagabond. Progress is always being made on the Vagabond, despite some of the more attention grabbing airplanes like the <a href="http://skagitaero.com/2009/05/30/waco-qcf-2-cockpit-update/">Waco QCF-2</a> and S<a href="http://skagitaero.com/2009/06/21/stinson-is-in-concrete/">tinson SR-9C</a> that probably get longer inspections from visitors. But the little PA-15 sits quietly, not complaining and is getting closer to flying every week.]]></description>

		<title>Paul returns with his Curtiss-Wright Junior CW-1S</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well as promised, Paul Cullman visited again, this time with his beautiful Curtiss-Wright Junior CW-1S. As much as we liked the L-5 visit (more pictures from that visit below), seeing the Junior was a real treat. This airplane was built in 1931 and was Curtiss' answer to an affordable airplane during the depression. It was sort of the LSA of its time and was designed to cost about the same as a 'medium class' automobile. Unfortunately, today's LSAs don't quite even come in at the expensive class of cars.]]></description>

		<title>Stinson L-5 Stops By For A Visit</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Paul Cullman is a somewhat regular visitor to Concrete. He stopped by with his Grob motorglider a few times over the summer, but today he flew in with his Stinson L-5B. We&#8217;ve heard stories of the airplane, and it was great to see it up close. Paul has been flying for a long time, and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Fairchild F24G Photos Added To Gallery</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We had another good evening photo shoot, this time with the Fairchild F24G. This time we were up a bit later in the evening so we managed to get some sunset shots. And we decided to climb a bit higher out of the valley which gave us a great view of Mt. Baker which provided [...]]]></description>
