| Doc Brunquist Anchorage, AK | My father, Norm Brunquist bought a YL-15 from the forest service auction in the 50s. He has left us now but many are the memories of moose hunting and berry picking trips into the bush country of south central Alaska with him in the old Boeing Scout.
I last flew in one in Pennsylvania, with the owner McLeoud, (from whom you recived your beautiful example i belive ) in the only one currrently in flying condition that i know of. That was the fall of 1978. It was white and black, but my fathers was polished Aluminum as it came from the Army. This is a fantastic Plane, with a indicated stall speed of 21 Knots, on a 125 lycoming and i will attest to you, it can fly the speed of a running moose. With the full length flaperons down it stands on its nose while continuing to fly horizontal looking like a dragonfly as many have said. Dad predominately kept ours on floats and it did realy well with that configuration especialy for Alaska. We collected enough parts to construct at least one more and my brother Keith Bought another from down in Mexico, "EL BURRO". Keith is furiously working this winter (2004) to get Dad's N4770C back in flying condition as he currently owns all known parts for the YL-15. Watch out for one soon at Oshkosh. Just a guess but knowing my brother.... DBrunquist 02/05/2004 @ 16:02 [ref: 6743] |
