Here is a link to some logbook entries: here is a link to some borescope pictures: here The aircraft is OFFERED AS IS, WHERE-IS , and is available for pre-buy inspection at our suburban Saint Louis facility. The airplane was donated to us and flown, via ferry permit, to KSUS in March 2016 (the last date it has flown). We have chosen not to inspect this plane, but borescoped the engine. See the list of obvious issues below. The aircraft is being sold as a project due to our staff limitations. Wings of Hope can supply a list of maintenance providers in our area who may be able to assist in making the aircraft ferryable. The aircraft is sold without a battery. The paint shows very nice with high gloss. The airplane includes the Valley Gear Door modification which improves reliability & reduces aerodynamic drag during retraction/extention and reduces weight by 7 lbs. Obvious Issues are: the engine will not start, fuel line froze and cracked allowing fuel to leak out of belly, cylinder corrosion was found (pictures included), pilot seat back loose and lacking a bolt and nut, right front seat is off seat tracks, and the flaps will not stay up without hydraulic pressure.
