Today I brought home this beautiful 1984 IIL, powered by revmaster 2100D. She has 290hrs on the clock and won best sonerai at airventure 1991. She was last flown in 1994 and has passed through several owners since then. I hope to have her back in the sky this spring and I'm sure I'll have some questions along the way.

She's the 2nd sonerai I've owned, I previously owned a IILT back in 2013 and put around 20hrs on her. I'm looking forward to getting this one flying again.

I like your rear cockpit instrument setup. I have a 1979 Sonerai IILT with no instruments in the back seat and
no avionics, so a clean sheet to work on. But the price was right. :)
How are your brakes set up? Do you have the hand levers per the original drawings or toe/ heel brakes?
Looks like you are going to be flying it sooner than I will be able with mine.
