Luscombe 8E     N1878K          (c/n  4605)



                                    

                                     Production of the Luscombe Silvaire continued after WW II with the basically similar Models 8E and
                                     8F.  The above Model 8E seen at Hawthorne Municipal Airport in the late 1950s was built in 1947.
                                     The only discernable difference between this and the pre-war models was the rear window and the
                                     changing of the V-strut on the wing to a single solid strut.
