had
| an
| | | engine-failure and crashed on the roof of a house that was
| damaged
| | for $
| | | 1000.-
| | | But what plane is it? I can read the registration: NC 156.
| | | But several registers ara giving the wrong plane.(Beech)
| | | Note the NACA cowl!!

| | After looking at your picture again it looks like there may be
an 8

| | Yes, looking at the registration, it's maybe NC 15658.
| | In the registers it's named as Fairchild 24C8C.
| | Thank you for the resaerch.

| You're welcome. Where did you find it in the registers? An FAA
search
| that I tried would not work- too many numbers.
| Are you satisfied that it is the right airplane?

| Yes, I'm sure(...) it is the Fairchild 24C8C: NC 15658.
| Only 8 were built of this type.(Specaial engine)
| Thank you.

Yes, that's right. So the combination 1568 is wrong.
But looking at the picture, there is some space between the numbers 6 and 8.
Space enough for another number. But wich?
I tried them all, from 1-9. Then there is only one combination possible:
15658.
All other combinations are not for a Fairchild 24C8C with it's special
enginecowl
NC15608 is Fairchild 24C8D(wrong engine) All others are Taylor-aircraft.
So resuming: Fairchild 24C8C, but who am to think that?
Thank you.
