I live near De Graff, in Western Ohio I have been flying since 1967. I am now flying a 1977 Maule M5-210C. I own 28 acres and have a 1900 foot airstrip in the center oriented north and south with a woods on the north end to essentially make it a one way strip. The Maule is the perfect airplane for a farm strip and is equipped and capable of long cross country flights at 140 MPH. I have a commercial license with Instrument, multi-engine and flight instructor ratings. Have done air charter, flight instructing and aerial patrol work in the past, but only fly for pleasure now. I have a little over 1900 flying hours now. Have owned Cessna 120 and 182's in the past. My Amish neighbors refer to me as "The Airplane Man" and look forward to seeing me fly, but they are not allowed to fly in airplanes. The barn/hangar combination is shared with 13 Case tractors and 2 Farmalls, and a Case bulldozer and 4 lawn tractors. I have been retired 4 1/2 years and bought this property after I retired. I farm 20 acres in crops and have 3 acres in hay... Gene
