My understanding Allied went out of business? At least the training
part of it?


Just gave their number a call, and I think the recording said Hines
Aviation, so perhaps they have sold or closed. I left a message and will let
you know what I find out.

I live in a area along the river they used to frequent on their training
flights, but haven't seen much if any activity from this since last fall. I
hope I haven't waited too late, I always intended to get a few hours of
instruction in one of their 47s. To me, they're a very proud old bird.
