He had several different small planes in the 40s through 70s. Walked with a limp from a plane crash. He crushed his foot in one while hunting wolves and crashed in a farm field.

Any ideas what it belonged on? How do I get picture from phone to this post?

Thanks, Keith

I'll try to look that number up in a few days when I'm home. Be patient.

Only had it for 20 years, I can wait. Thanks, Keith

I don't have that number listed. They do list these models under Type Certificate TC752: 5722, 5722F, 5724, 5724F and 5726, all for 65 HP engines. If the last digit in your model stamping is a "6", then that's probably the correct model number. The listing does not specify a make/model of aircraft, however.
