The Straight Tail Story

I have always preferred the look of the straight tail Cessnas to the later model swept tail versions. Many say they fly better too. However, in 1960 the fin was in and there was no going back. I often reflect on what was going on in the world when this aircraft was manufactured by Cessna. In 1957, the Soviet Union launched Sputnik and Scott Crossfield made the first powered flight in the X-15. A lot has happened since then. However, early 182 models, which were built on the same line with the venerable Cessna 180, still outperform new models in many ways.

N203K is a 1957 Cessna 182A based in Phoenix, Arizona. This particular aircraft spent most of its life in the southwestern U.S. and was in an airworthy but otherwise average condition when I purchased it in 2003. While a number of improvements were made over

the years, the instrument panel was essentially original with the exception of a few radios. I flew the aircraft for several years with a single com radio, a transponder and a portable GPS including one trip to the gulf coast for hurricane Katrina. I learned to fly with a standard “six pack” instrument arrangement. Flying behind the old panel was an odd experience because every time I would get into the pilot seat I had to reorient myself to the nonstandard layout. After a few years of this, I decided that it was time to update the old panel.

As an A&P mechanic, I was able to do the work myself. It was a challenging project and I knew from experience that the scope would get bigger as I went along. In this case, what started as a panel upgrade turned into completely rewiring the aircraft, installing new avionics, instruments, antennas, controls, glareshield, windshield and windows followed by a complete new interior. A number of maintenance items were handled along the way and now I have a modest IFR panel that is a pleasure to work with. It turned out great!

Charter Member Honored by FAA Drexel Scott, OFA founding member #19, of Round Rock Texas was recently honored by receiving the coveted Wright Brothers Master Pilot Award from Gary E. Stamper, FAAST Team Program Manag-er of the San Antonio TX FAA FSDO. The award was presented by Donald Hendricks, OFA #79, on behalf of Gary at a meeting of fellow aviators. Pilots who have logged PIC time each year for at least 50 years, have no violations, and are approved by a local board are eligible to receive this award. Other recent recipients include Chuck Yeager, put-ting our OFA member in some pretty fast company. The Roll of Honor listing recipients can be found at FAA safety.gov.

Drexel was one of those kids awed by early aviation in the 30’s and in March, 1945 at the of age 16, he took the bus every Saturday and Sunday to down-town Youngstown, Ohio. Once there he transferred to another bus, rode it to the last stop on the west-side, and then walked a mile to Watson Field, a small grass airport. He worked many odd jobs and, in return , for every 4 hours worked, Steve Conti, the instructor/operator, gave him 1/2 hour dual in Piper J-3 NC 38827 for $2.50. He soloed after 8 hours on September 19, 1945. After a stint in the 7th Division in Korea, he returned home and then attended Pur-due University, graduating in 1952. He bought his first airplane that year, a 1946 Ercoupe N99490 for $1250.00 and also began a career as a representa-tive of almost every aviation insurance company in the U.S., handling their insurance claims. To date, Drexel has investigated over 4,800 aircraft accidents involving everything from ultralights to DC-10s and has earned his Commercial and Instrument ratings.

Drexel heard of EAA in 1953 and immediately joined as member #4448. Since that time he has owned a number of airplanes, from his second one, a 1947 Cessna 140 N2671N, up through 172, 182, P and S model Bonanzas , 3 Swifts, NA AT-6G, 3 T-34s, RV-4, Monocupe 90AL, Cassutt IIIM and many other airplanes. His all time favorite was T-34 N69RJ ,which he restored and owned from 1971 to 1986, and in which he logged some 1400 hours. “Scotty” as he is known to friends also owned and restored Midget Mustang S/N #2, N9N. This airplane was affectionately known as “Mammy” when flown in Formula one races as #9 by Mel Stickney, air-line pilot and air racer. Mel stopped by the restored

“Mammy” when Drexel had it at the 1963 EAA Fly-in just before taking off as a passenger in Rolly Coles’ 450 Stearman, in which both pilots were tragically killed. The airplane was subsequently sold to Jerry O’Neil, CEO of the General Tire Co. of Akron, Ohio. Jerry had been a primary flight instructor during WWII and had not flown for 18 years. He had no problem with the little bird but when he turned it over to his Chief Pilot for a short cross country flight, the gear collapsed from one of those unintended land-ings about 15’ above the runway. The repaired air-plane subsequently went to the Canal Zone and ul-timately to Texas where it was destroyed in a crash. “Mammy” was the cover photo of the December 1963 Sport Aviation.

Another airplane owned and restored by Drexel was the original Pitts Special, the beautiful little biplane Curtis Pitts built and which was made famous by Betty Skelton. The “Little Stinker”, as it was known, was in rough shape when Scotty bought it in June of 1964 from Whitey Eckhardt owner of Sunny South Aviation in Miami. The little bipe had been converted over the years from the original 85 hp Continental to a 125 hp GPU and then a 170 HP Lycoming en-gine. The inverted fuel system, when he picked it , up was made of galvanized cast iron pipe from your local hardware store and it had a compass, radio, starter, generator, and battery, none of which worked. The trip from MIA was a notable event but the “Stinker” gave her all and made it to a duster strip in Cordele Georgia the first day out of FL. Drexel met the line boy at the strip and learned that “DuB” was about 19 and had around 45 hours in “THE Tri Pacer” and other than that had “only about 3000 hours in them 450 Stearman dusters”. DuB allowed as how he’d give about anything to fly something as neat as the little Pitts so a deal was struck. Scotty told DuB he would leave the “ Stinker” in Cordele for a week and he and Dick, the owner of the operation, could fly it all they wanted if DuB would fly it to YNG the follow-ing Sunday. Sure enough, about 5:00 PM the next week “Stinker”, in DuB’s capable hands, greased onto the one runway at Landsdowne Airport. DuB hopped out, told Scotty he was sorry to be a little late but he had to dust 600 acres of cotton before leaving in the morning and he had to get to PIT right away for his trip back because he had to get up early on Monday to work more cotton. Scotty has always had a warm spot in his heart for that young man. The “Stinker”, as it was, can be seen on the cover of the September 1965 issue of “Sport Aviation”.That photo was taken at the 1964 EAA convention in Rockford.

Drexel removed the starter, battery, radio and gener-ator which eliminated about 100 pounds and really made the little airplane a rocket. It was a bit smaller and much lighter than current models and a joy to fly so Scotty learned aerobatics by reading several books on the subject, got a low level waiver from the FAA , and flew it in local air shows. He also pi-loted the “Stinker” in the 1964 National Air Races in Cleveland as a “guest” to make up a field of entries for the newly designated biplane race category. The Stinker overpowered the other bipes limited to 125 HP so it was really just a show thing but great fun zipping around the pylons at 160 mph.

Following a 3 year restoration and major face lift, Drexel flew it to Rockford for the 1967 EAA Conven-tion. While there, Betty Skelton introduced herself and was most complimentary about the face lift. A day or so later, a group flew to a grass airport west of Rockford. Betty was there with a number of other aerobatic pilots including The National Aerobatic Champion, Charlie Hilliard who was flying a 180 HP Pitts. Charlie took a turn with the original “Little Stinker” as did Pat Ledford. When they had finished, Betty went over to the airplane and Drexel asked her if she would like to fly it. Betty said that unfortunately she was banned from flying her own airplane due to a contract she had with the Campbell Ewald adver-tising agency which had a contract with GM. She said she had not flown anything for 15 years but she kept looking longingly at her past aerobatic baby. Betty was only a little over 5 feet or so tall and proba-bly weighed around 100 pounds and when she flew the airplane it had an 85 Continental. Now, it was a horse of another color with a 170 Lycoming. Betty kept looking and finally said YES, she wanted to fly it. She was so small she was able to get a seat chute under her and her hands were trembling as she sat in the cockpit. Scotty propped it and Betty taxied out to the grass runway, checked mags, opened the throttle and the Stinker almost leaped off the ground. Betty got about 500 feet, rolled inverted and off she went to put on a nice little airshow. Remember, this little lady had not flown in 15 years! After she made a perfect landing, she was still shaking just a little bit from excitement and she said. “Drexel. I don’t care what you want for it, I want to buy it-even if I have to sell my fur coat.” So, that’s where the “Little Stinker” went,back to Betty.

During the restoration, Drexel found the original I struts were made of plywood and spruce and two of the fittings were broken at the wing attach points but the airplane was so beautifully engineered by Curtis

that it hung together through all the practice prior to the rebuild. Scotty didn’t like the straight line trail-ing edge of the original rudder so during the rebuild he designed a new, rounder rudder which seems to be standard on today’s Pitts. At any rate, the airplane now hangs upside down in the entrance to the Ud-var-Hazy addition of the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum out at Dulles airport with the re-engineered rudder and streamline 4130 tubing I struts built by OFA#19. After Betty donated it to the museum it was re-restored with an 85 hp Continental and Betty’s original paint scheme.

Drexel has had innumerable interesting experiences in 55 years as a pilot. He has flown air shows, For-mula One races and still flies a Piper Vagabond he owns in partnership. Many folks have encouraged him to write about his escapades, experiences and other events in his life as a pilot but better than that, he plans to put all those sometimes funny, sometimes scary and sometimes tragic stories on a CD which is guaranteed to entertain people who like hangar flying tales.
