Years ago I asked Ron why his plane was registered as an experimental, and if I remember correctly, he didn't even know that it was registered as an experimental. I think it was registered as an experimental back long ago when someone had it fitted with a big fuel tank in the passenger's seat location and was going to try to set some type of record with it. I think the guy who was going to set the record was Max Conrad, but I may have the name all wrong. There is a picture of Ron's airplane in the book "A Touch of Class", with the big fuel tank installed. I'm sure Ron could shed more light on all of this, but I don't think he's on the mailing list. I know he has done 337's on all of his mods and improvements and had them approved by the FAA. I've talked to Ron a number of times on the phone, and he's done lots of neat things to his plane. From what I've heard, his Alon is one of the very best. I think he spent about 10 years restoring it.
