| This G-44 Widgeon has had some major repairs and alterations over the last three and a half years. |  |
 |
The plane is owned by Pete and Maralyn Soby of Boulder Colorado. It was brought to Cranland in Hanson, MA for an engine conversion to TIO 540 Lycomings. |
| First other modifications were made such as water and land gross weight increases and the replacement of the center section due to corrosion. |  |
 |
Several field approvals such as the installation of Cessna adjustable seats |
| and composite spinner domes. |  |
| It was finally flown by Dennis Burke and brought to American Aero Services for a final inspection and to complete the pile of paperwork to make it all airworthy. |  |
| This is Mike Maurano of "Alumaurano Custom Metal Works". The subtle smile of approval after flying the plane for the first time. |
 |
| Three and a half years of fabricating comes together to make an incredible flying plane. The plane made several test flights and is now home in Colorado. Good Luck Pete! |
