Feb. 7, 1975, was a blustery, snowy day.But that didn’t stop Scott Shue from taking his first solo flight in an antique airplane to celebrate his 16th birthday.
“There was 6 inches of snow on the ground,” said Shue, now 50. “I’ll never forget that day.”
Today, Shue and his father, John Shue, are about three years into a project to restore the 1940 UPF-7 Waco plane at their shop in Emigsville.
