Item specifics
Condition: | Used |
1947 BONANZA, NEWER PAINT, UPDATED WINDOWS, CENTER STACK, E-225, LESS THAN 30 HOURS ON TOP OVERHAUL
THIS AIRPLANE SUFFERED DAMAGE AS A RESULT OF THE PILOT FORGETTING TO FLIP THE SWITCH ON LANDING.
THIS OF COURSE DAMAGED THE BELLY, AND PROP WAS BENT
AS AN ADDED INDIGNITY, THE AIRPORT OPERATOR WAS CONCERNED ABOUT GETTING THE RUNWAY CLEARED QUICKLY (FOR AN UNKNOWN REASON) AND PULLED THE AIRCRAFT BACKWARD OFF OF THE RUNWAY ON ITS BELLY, FURTHER DAMAGING THE BELLY, AND DAMAGING THE COWL FLAPS
THE COMPANY CALLED IN TO LIFT THE AIRPLANE ON ITS GEAR HAD SOME TROUBLE, AND THEY PUT A WRINKLE IN THE TAILCONE AND STEPPED ON THE TOP OF THE LEFT WING, WRINKLING THE TOP SKINS THERE !!
AS AN INSULT TO INJURY, WE REMOVED THE INBOARD AND OUTBOARD MAIN GEAR DOORS BEFORE WE DISASSEMBLED THE AIRPLANE, BECAUSE THEY WERE UNDAMAGED, AND THEY WERE STOLEN OFF OF OUR TRUCK ENROUTE TO MINNEAPOLIS !!
POOR AIRPLANE.
OK, ALL IS NOT BAD
THE E-225 ENGINE UPGRADE HAS 1370 HOURS SINCE MAJOR, BUT LESS THAN 30 SINCE A FRESH TOP AT THE ANNUAL 7/2014
AT THAT SAME TIME, THE CASE WAS SPLIT TO REPLACE A BAD CAM FOLLOWER, SO ALL OF THE INTERNALS ON THE ENGINE WERE INSPECTED, AND THE REQUIRED PARTS WERE REPLACED.
NOT A MAJOR, BUT NOT NOTHING EITHER !!
PLANE POWER ALTERNATOR CONVERSION JUST ADDED
HARTZELL PROP CONVERSION (BLADES BENT)
ALUMINUM FRONT SPAR CONVERSION
ALUMINUM AILERON CONVERSIONS
THE AIRCRAFT WAS STRIPPED AND PAINTED IN 1994, AND THE PAINT AND THE SCHEME STILL LOOK GOOD.
THE SIDE GLASS WAS REPLACED IN 2001, AND IT WAS UPDATED WITH THE NEW STYLE FRAMELESS SIDE GLASS, WITH CALL WINDOWS ON BOTH SIDES
ONE PEICE WINDSHIELD WAS ADDED EARLIER
THE LEATHER INTERIOR IS IN GOOD SHAPE, IN A SANDY BEIGE COLOR
THE DASH HAS BEEN UPDATED WITH A CENTER RADIO STACK MOD.
YOU CAN SEE THAT SOME OF THE INSTRUMENTS AND ALL OF THE AVIONICS ARE NOT INCLUDED. ALL ITEMS SHOWN ARE INCLUDED
ALL 3 OF THE LANDING GEAR ITSELF ARE UNDAMAGED
THERE IS A DENT INSIDE THE NOSE GEAR WELL, UNKNOWN EXACTLY HOW OR WHEN THIS OCCURRED.
THIS AIRFRAME HAS 5537 SNEW, AND WE HAVE AIRFRAME LOGBOOKS SINCE BRAND NEW !!
ENGINE LOGS ALSO INCLUDED.
FAA AIRWORTHINESS CERTIFICATE AND FAA BILL OF SALE ARE ALSO INCLUDED.
THIS AIRCRAFT WILL DEFINITELY BE A PROJECT TO GET FLYING AGAIN, BUT WE HAVE PRICED IT REALLY CHEAP, TO MAKE IT MORE ATTRACTIVE.
ALTERNATIVELY, THIS WOULD BE A FANTASTIC PARTS DONOR TO UPDATE YOUR 35-- F35 WITH SOME NICE STUFF !!
