1941 AERONCA 65CA SUPER CHIEF, REBUILT IN 2001, NOW SERIOUS DAMAGE, CHEAP !!
THE PREWAR 7 SERIES AIRPLANES WERE SIDE BY SIDE SEATING, METAL TUBE WITH FABRIC COVERING, WITH WOOD SPARS IN THE WINGS.
IDENTIFIED BY THE ENGINE SIZE, FOR INSTANCE 50C IS A CHIEF WITH A 50 H.P. CONTINENTAL ENGINE.
THIS AIRCRAFT IS A 65CA, WHICH THEY CALLED A "SUPER CHIEF", DUE NOT ONLY TO THE HIGH HORSEPOWER ENGINE (65 !) BUT OTHER MISC. IMPROVEMENTS TO THE PLANE AS WELL.
ACCORDING TO THE LOGBOOKS, THIS AIRPLANE WAS REBUILT, DOWN TO SANDBLASTING THE METAL TUBE FRAME, AND RECOVERED WITH STITS POLYFIBER FABRIC, IN 2001.
TIME SINCE 2001 IS APPROXIMATELY 50 HOURS. HANGER KEPT SINCE THEN, THE AIRPLANE WAS IN GOOD CONDITION.
UNFORTUNATELY, THE OWNER OF THE AIRPLANE, WHO OBVIOUSLY WASNT SUPER CURRENT IN THIS AIRPLANE, HAD A BIT OF A PROBLEM ON LANDING, AND STALLED THE AIRPLANE SHORT OF THE RUNWAY AND SPUN IN.
THIS AIRPLANE IS SERIOUSLY DAMAGED, WITH DAMAGE ALL OVER. BUT, AS YOU CAN SEE, IT IS NOT ALL DESTROYED.
LOTS OF INDIVIDUAL COMPONENTS ARE STILL USEABLE, AND THIS AIRPLANE WOULD BE A POSSIBLE REBUILDER (FOR A DIE-HARD), OR AT THE VERY LEAST WILL MAKE A GREAT DONOR, FOR PARTS, OR MAYBE PARTS AND PAPERWORK ?
THIS AIRPLANE COMES WITH AN AIRWORTHINESS CERTIFICATE, PILOTS OPERATING HANDBOOK, REGISTRATION CERTIFICATES BACK TO 1941 !!, LOGBOOKS STARTING FROM 1950, (FIRST LOG MISSING), AND EVEN AN ORIGINAL FORM 337 FOR A RADIO INSTALL IN 1947 !!
THE ENGINE HAS BEEN UNBOLTED, AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTOS, AND IS NOT INCLUDED, BUT THE ENTIRE AIRFRAME, WINGS, GEAR AND TAIL, SEATS, INSTRUMENTS, YOKES, ETC. ARE !!
THIS WAS A VERY NICE EXAMPLE OF A PREWAR AERONCA, AND IT EVEN QUALIFIES AS A LIGHT SPORT, IF YOU WANT TO FLY IT LIKE THAT.
USE IT OR FIX IT, EITHER WAY IT IS CHEAP HISTORY IN YOUR HANGER.
LOCATED IN A STORAGE LOCKER IN MCDOUNOGH GA.
WE WILL PAY THE STORAGE FEE FOR 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE OF THE SALE, AND SEND YOU THE KEY FOR THE LOCKER AND THE PAPERWORK ONCE WE ARE PAID.
CUTE. HAVE FUN !!
