I, Gerald C. Stadtmiller, do hereby swear that on February 16, 1960 Republic RC-3, serial number 1053, Registration N6763K, was purchased by me from Donald A. Powell.

The bill of sale for this transaction and the application for registration was sent to Federal Aviation Agency, Washingtom, D.C., but apparently these papers have been lost.  It is impossible for me to obtain another bill of sale from Mr. Powell, inasmuch as he is out of the country and the last I heard he had been seriously injured.  I have been unable to find any way of contacting him.
