Still waiting to see what it will take to fix her and finding someone to do the work - or it may end up totalled..... Anyway I pulled the wings off and this is her now, Looks Sad don't it? :'(

Actually, It looks better with the wings off than with crumpled wings on. Before, It look like a "wreck." Now it looks like it is being "rebuilt."
Not for nothing, I do believe that all things happen for a reason. I also think thing will work out for you and you'll even enjoy the rebuilding. Remember the "Bionic Man." "We will make him stronger, faster, ........."
Good luck, and if you need anything, let me know. I have to go and read a post titled "TURD-According to John Stevens"

Ron, this is a sign. Throw those wings away and attach a rotor to it!

That's a Great idea! I think R Herron actually converted a Piper J-3 Cub. Maybe he can help you convert the Pacer. Imagine, an affordable 4 seat gyro. 8)

It would need a big set of rotorblades and I don't think the stock 135 horse engine would be much of a performer solo much less four up
