I remember that a couple weeks ago, someone said they would like to see some shots of the Guardian my family owns. Here are some.


EDIT: Woot! 200th post! 8-)

Nice. Is she airworthy? I've seen photos of her outside before, but never in the air.

She's close to airworthy. She needs a new carburetor and some of the control surfaces need to be re-skinned, plus some regular maintenance.

This is amazing to hear, i was just reading flight journal the other day and they had a big article on the guardian as it was grummans last true ASW aircraft. Beautiful bird and i cant wait to see it in the air. Tell your family thanks for getting this bird to almost flying condition. Are you guys part of a museum of sorts?
