- April 1967 - Extensive work completed following N101N being damaged in a hurricane. Information on the FAA 337 form reads:
"The summary of the foregoing repairs were for the correction of damage to the fuselage nose section, fuselage deck section forward of the windshield frame and the windshield frame and cabin canopy, which was caused when the aircraft was capsized by a storm. At that time the aircraft was in the process of receiving a complete major overhaul of the airframe and the installation of new type engines and was in a partially dismantled state, the complete empenage, all control surfaces, flaps and engines having been removed."
- April 1967 - Extensive impact damage to the right wing repaired.
- April 1967 - The forward fuselage, from station 93.438 forward, is replaced with the forward fuselage removed from a Camair 480. This modification was later reported to give N101N a cruise speed approximately 4 to 5 mph faster than a stock D-16.
- April 1967 - The original 150hp Lycoming O-320 engines are replaced by 160hp O-320s.

Notice the change in engines, from the 1982 photo above with its
original 150 hp carburetor intakes on the bottom cowl to the bulged
D-16A cowls for the 170 hp O-340-A1As. (unknown)
