I just bought a 1946 BC12D AND HAVE JUST STARTED THE REBUILD. I HAVE THE AIRFRAME IN MY GARAGE AND I'm working on it day and night. I can't wait to fly it.(I have to learn to fly a tail dragger first)

I just went into partners with two others on a 1946 BC-12D and have only a few hours flying her. It is GREAT! and a lot of Fun! SW Florida has a lot of little Mom & Pop airports to visit and this is what makes flying fun for me. Has anyone put floats on one with the c-65 engine? I live on the Peace River and own a marina and restaurant ( with my wife) Nav-A-Gator.com

Hi Yall:

I recently aquired an old Taylorcraft in need of a total restoration. It sat in a guys back yard for 20 years if that tells you anything. Can anybody give some clues as to where to get parts,blueprints, or any other help?

Thanks
Rick

Just a comment to Ronald McKinley, I also live in Houston and my partner and I just finished our restore of our BC-12D and are currently flying it. I don't have time to help you in the rebuild, but we maybe could help by answering any questions you may have and you would be welcome to come look at our BC-12D.

Together with my father and uncle and cousin, we bought a 1947 BC-12D (5189M) in 1969 for $800 (only $200 out of my pocket!). It needed some work (engine needed tune up, prop needed refurbished, etc.) We fixed it up for a few more $'s and I soloed in it after 6 hours instruction. I built time in it and got my private pilot license less than 3 months later. What a great plane at a great price. Since I was in college with other expenses and needed money, we sold it for $1200 to someone in Springfield Mo. after having it for 9 months. My logbook shows I had over 300 takeoffs and landings in the taylorcraft. Only 65 horsepower, float fuel guage, no radio, no flaps, not fast, but a great plane to learn in and build time in.

I love this airplane (the yellow and black one posted below) It has given me hundreds of hours of enjoyable flying. Unfortunatly she is for sale, kid's college have a way of doing that. Oh well she has been a lot of fun for the past seven years. I know I will miss her when she's gone....:(
