Up for bid is my 2008 Sonex Tri-gear Experimental Aircraft with the Aerovee engine. I have owned this plane for 3 years, and unfortunately have only put around 5 hours on it. Shortly after purchase while going through condition inspection, it was noted that a couple of cylinders were low on compression. I wanted to do some upgrades to the exhaust and the fuel delivery system, so I decided to pull the engine and do an overhaul. At the time, I was working out of state and commuting home when I could, so it took me quite a while to accomplish the engine rebuild and upgrades. I completed the engine about 3 months ago, and unfortunately have struggled with it since. Since hanging the re-built engine, I have had issues with fuel delivery and ignition. I have been able to run the engine for break-in for about an hour, and it ran great, but the aeroinjector had to be manually choked to get it started. Now I have developed an ignition issue that needs addressed, I know that it will not take too much to get her airworthy but I just don’t have the time or money to spend on it anymore. I am able to assist in pulling the wings for transport. The airframe has just over 300 hours, and is straight and beautiful. No corrosion and no damage or damage history. I have the original plans, and all technical documentation, along with log books. The Sonex is a joy to fly. Stable, yet very agile when commanded to maneuver. I will sell all extra parts I have with the airplane, along with an extra Sensinich Propeller, which is around $1000 - $1200. I have over 30k invested in this aircraft, and I am selling with NO RESERVE! This aircraft has the Sratomaster EFIS and an ICOM portable VHF radio. The aircraft was set up for VFR daytime operations. There is no transponder or lights installed. It is my understanding that this aircraft meets the light-sport specifications. Now the details. This aircraft is sold AS-IS/WHERE IS as a project aircraft. The buyer will be solely responsible for inspecting the aircraft prior to purchase, and solely responsible for pick up and transport of the aircraft and associated parts. I will in no way incur any costs in transport, shipping, or storing of the aircraft. Buyer is responsible for pick up in Indianapolis, IN. within 10 days after auction end. I need to vacate the hangar, so I can’t store the aircraft for you. Please contact me through Ebay messaging with any questions, or 317-513-8246 between 9am-9pm EST. I require a $500.00 non-refundable deposit via Paypal within 24 hours after auction end. The balance will be due via wire transfer, certified bank funds, or cash before, or at the time of aircraft pick up.
