I have 3 24s to sell, one Argos 3 undergoing annual, a 1946 F24R46 w/poly cover and factory finish, as above. Call on these and let's talk more information and prices!

Here’s some more information on Ron’s Fairchild 24’s. I’ve been helping him sell his collection and am working on inspecting them. I’m close to wrapping up the annual on the one with the “Argus” styling, and will continue through the others two as time allows. However, I believe Ron is willing to sell them as is. All airplanes were flying up to a year or two ago when Ron quit flying. I think they all are covered in Ceconite, and the fabric is in reasonable condition. Always hangared.

I’ll try and post some links to pictures too; I’ll see if I can make that work in another post.

We will advertise them on Barnstormers, etc. probably in the next couple weeks but we wanted to start with the club first. Located near KHRI Hermiston, in north east Oregon.
