1989 HATZ CB-1, 875SNEW, 199 SMOH,49 STOP, SOOOO CUTE, LITTLE BELLY DAM ONLY!AMAZING!THE HATZ IS A MODERN INTERPRETATION OF A 1920’S-1930’S BIPLANE, IN A SOMEWHAT SMALLER, MORE MANAGEABLE SIZE, DESIGNED FOR ENGINES FROM 100-150 H.P.THE BUILDER OF THIS AIRPLANE, WHO SPENT 3,200 HOURS ON THE BUILD, DID A GREAT JOB, AS EVIDENCED BY: THE EMPTY WEIGHT, EVEN WITH THE INCREASED WEIGHT OF THE HEAVIER BUT MORE POWERFUL LYCOMING 0-235 115 H.P. ENGINE, BEING ONLY 21 LBS MORE THAN THE DESIGN WEIGHT WITH THE LIGHTER 100 H.P.OH AND ALSO BY THE 1990 OSHKOSH AWARD FOR BEST PLANS BUILT AIRPLANE!!!!!!!!!!THIS AIRPLANE WAS ALSO FEATURED IN A REALLY NICE ARTICLE IN AIR PROGRESS MAGAZINE (COPY OF THE ARTICLE INCLUDED WITH THE LOGS AND PAPERWORK), WHERE THE AUTHOR FLEW THE AIRPLANE AND LOVED IT!!SOLD IN THE 1990’S, IT HAD DAMAGE IN 2007, WHICH BESIDE THE REPAIRS, LED TO A FULL BLOWN, NUTS AND BOLTS RESTORATION, SIGNED OF JULY OF 2011!POLYFIBER FABRIC REPLACED ON THE WHOLE AIRCRAFT!0-235 ENGINE OVERHAULED JANUARY OF 2010!TOP OVERHAUL WITH ALL 4 BRAND NEW CYLINDERS 4/2019 (49 HOURS AGO)REMOTE OIL FILTERNEW STYLE DOUBLE FORK TAILWHEELIN AN HOMAGE TO THE BARNSTORMER BIPLANES OF THE 1920’S AND 30’S THE HATZ WAS DESIGNED TO EMULATE, THIS AIRPLANE HAS CUSTOM LETTERING, INCLUDING “SKY GYPSY AERIAL EXCURSIONS. SEE YOUR TOWN FROM THE AIR” ON EACH FUSELAGE SIDEN NUMBER ON WINGS AND TAIL SHOWS NX899PTHE LYCOMING ENGINE, LIKE THE REST OF THE AIRPLANE, IS DETAILED TO A “T”, WITH THE COOLEST (AND OLDEST LOOKING) VALVE COVERS I HAVE EVER SEEN, PROTRUDING FROM THE PARTIAL COWLING/COOLING SCOOPS!THIS BEAUTIFUL, MUCH LOVED AIRPLANE SUFFERED DAMAGE WHEN IT LANDED SLIGHTLY HARD ON THE MAINS ON A GRASS STRIP.THE GEAR ARMS THAT ATTACH UNDER THE CABIN PULLED OUT FROM THEIR FITTINGS AND THE SMALLER OF THE 2 MAIN STRUTS ON EACH GEAR BENT. THE BIGGER STRUT ON BOTH SIDES APPEARS UNDAMAGED.THE BUNGEE CORDS ARE ALSO UNDAMAGED.THE GEAR LEGS FOLDED OUTWARD AND UPWARD AND DID NOT HIT THE FUSELAGE OR THE WINGS.THE DAMAGE TO THE FUSELAGE IS TO THE FORWARD BELLY FORMERS AND BELLY STRINGERS.THE WOODEN FLOOR PANELS DO NOT SHOW ANY DEFORMATION, SO ONLY THE VERY LOWEST SHAPING GOT HURT.THERE IS A SMALL “SCUFF” ON THE RIGHT LOWER WING, (SHOWN), THE ONLY OTHER DAMAGE ON THE WHOLE AIRFRAME!THE METAL PROP WAS BENT ON BOTH BLADES. This is a common model prop, readily available, or go back with a wood prop, for “period correctness”.THIS AIRCRAFT IS SOLD WITH AIRFRAME LOGBOOKS SINCE NEW, CONSTRUCTION LOG, WEIGHT AND BALANCE, RIGGING DIAGRAMS AND NOTES, DATA/HISTORY/RECIEPT NOTEBOOK, ENGINE LOGBOOKS SINCE 1950, WITH DETAILED ENTRIES FOR RECENT WORK.AND THE FAA AIRWORTHINESS CERTIFICATE!AND THE FAA BILL OF SALE!THIS AIRCRAFT IS FULLY REPAIRABLE IN THE DAMAGED AREA, AND DOES NOT REQUIRE “RESTORATION”, IT IS BEAUTIFUL!OF COURSE I WILL ASSUME THAT THE BUYER INTENDS TO REPAIR THE AIRPLANE TO FLYING CONDITION, BUT THE NOSTALGIC APPEARANCE AND SMALLER-THAN-BARNSTORMER SIZE MIGHT ALSO LEND ITSELF TO A DISPLAY OR SOME OTHER TYPE OF USE AS WELL!!PRICED CHEAP ENOUGH THAT YOU WILL NOT ONLY HAVE ONE OF THE NICEST HATZ BIPLANES IN EXISTENCE, BUT ALSO HAVE THE LEAST INVESTED!!LOCATED IN A SELF-STORAGE LOCKER IN BRADENTON FLORIDA. WE WILL PROVIDE STORAGE AT NO CHARGE UNTIL THE END OF JUNE, AND YOU COULD CONTINUE THE STORAGE FOR ADDITIONAL TIME AT YOUR COST IF YOU NEED IT!THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLED AIRPLANE WEIGHS LESS THAN 900 LBS, SO IT IS AN EASY TO TRANSPORT AIRPLANE.FALL IN LOVE!

REPAIR OF ANY AIRCRAFT WILL DEPEND ON MANY FACTORS, SUCH AS AVAILABILITY OF USED PARTS, LABOR RATE OF THE REPAIR FACILITY, FAMILIARITY WITH THE AIRCRAFT, ETC. AND WE WOULD NEVER PRESUME TO ESTIMATE THIS NUMBER FOR A BUYER. BEWARE OF THOSE WHO OBVIOUSLY GIVE UNREALISTICALLY LOW "ESTIMATES" FOR THE REPAIR OF THE DAMAGED AIRCRAFT THEY SELL.
