| Carter Ramsey Saint Simons Island, GA | To: Paul Wilder, Thank you for the information on Rich Van Iderstyne. In my research I have found the Serial Number and the N number. I have also found the PT 19 was sold to someone in FL. 01/14/2008 @ 17:29 [ref: 19295] |
| Paul Wilder Peachtree City, GA | Mr. Ramsey, You might try calling Rich Van Iderstyne over on Jekyll Island a stone's throw from you. Perhaps you've seen his PT-19 flying around. Don't know his number, but I bet he's in the phone book. 12/02/2007 @ 13:36 [ref: 18762] |
| Carter Ramsey Saint Simons Island, GA | I am in the process of researching one Fairchild PT 19. It was owned by my father Carter M Ramsey, who ran a flight school at Herlong Airfield, Jacksonville, Florida. He instructed with the PT 19 and owned it for about 10 years. It was painted yellow all over and had a sharks mouth painted on the nose cowl.
He has passed on and all of his pictures of this wonderful plane were destroyed in a fire. I spent many great hours with him in the cockpit of this plane. I would like to find someone who knows something about this PT 19. I would like to get a copy of the Log Book he filled out while he owned this plane so I can pass it on to my grand children. Last I heard it was wrecked and sold to a Mr. Sears in Brunswick, Ga. Thanks 10/23/2007 @ 11:33 [ref: 18284] |

| walter silversprings, FL | to: jason in vancouver, if you goto a search engine and search for pt19 assembly manual you should be able to find one. I understand they are available on cd also... 07/26/2007 @ 07:17 [ref: 17288] |
| walter silver springs, FL | TO: Jason in Vancouver, My brother has a copy of a copy of a book for the pt19 but it was not much help in the restoration. Some of the pages were unreadable and others inaccurate. He talked to the guy in Pennsylvania (JOE) that rebuilt the motor and had a number of aircraft mechanics help him along since the book was of so little use... 07/25/2007 @ 16:24 [ref: 17279] |
| walter white silver springs, FL | Ken, thanks for the input on the inspector for the PT19. He found one and it passed with flying colors and just got done with the 10 hour break in. Mad Dog Kelley, from Texas came east to fly it and get my Nephew qualified. I think my brother is going to take it to some shows first and then put it up for sale but if the right price came along I believe he would sell it now. I have seen a few restoration of the pt19 and similar aircraft and the job he did rates right up there. Wood floors in the cocpit and baggage area (he is a journeyman carpenter),stitched leather around the cockpit. Even in the areas that cannot be seen he was meticulous to put it mildly.When I went down to "help" I could hardly touch the aircraft, just hand him tools.
Whoever finally gets to own this aircraft will be one happy camper... 07/25/2007 @ 16:15 [ref: 17278] |
| R. P. Williams Simi, CA | I had a 1/4 scale pt-19 (9' wingspan w/smoke system) for several years. I ended up losing it due to a very bad choice on my part.
In the future I have plans to build a 1/3 scale pt-19. I'm in the process of building a 1/2 scale Smith Mini Plane. Regards, Rick 07/22/2007 @ 07:37 [ref: 17231] |
