THE 310J IS A FAST (190+ KNOT/220MPH CRUISE) COMFORTABLE CROSS COUNTRY CRUISER
ALTHOUGH LISTED AS A 6 PLACE AIRPLANE, THE 2 AFT KIDDIE SEATS ARE ONLY ACCESSIBLE THROUGH THE BAGGAGE DOOR, SO MOST PEOPLE LEAVE THEM OUT, SO THERE IS A REASONABLE BAGGAGE AREA. THIS AIRPLANE HAS THE ADJUSTABLE PILOT AND CO-PILOT BUCKETS AND RECLINING MIDDLE TWO SEATS.
ALL 4 SEATS HAVE SHOULDER HARNESSES INSTALLED !!
WITH THE LATER STYLE OF ANGLED TIP TANKS, SWEPT TAIL, 260 H.P. FUEL INJECTED ENGINES, UNDERWING EXHAUST, WING NACELLE LOCKER STORAGE, AND THE OPTIONAL AUX FUEL TANKS, THIS IS A MODERN LOOKING AIRPLANE, WITH FEATURES YOU WOULD WANT.
EACH CONTINENTAL IO-470 260 H.P. ENGINE HAS 735 HOURS SINCE MAJOR OVERHAUL (1500 HOUR TBO)
THE AIRFRAME TOTAL TIME IS 5,289
GOOD LOOKING ALLOVER WHITE WITH RED AND BLUE STRIPES
VERY NICE BLUE CLOTH INTERIOR, WITH MODERN SEAT BOLSTERS. VERY NICE !!
SOMETIMES, IT"S NOT WHAT HAPPENS TO AN AIRPLANE AS WHERE IT HAPPENS !!
THIS AIRPLANE LANDED IN A SOYBEAN FIELD JUST OFF THE END OF THE RUNWAY AT THE DOYLESTOWN, PENNSYLVANIA AIRPORT.
THE LANDING IN THE GREENERY AND SOFT DIRT DID VERY, VERY MINOR DAMAGE TO THE BOTTOMS OF THE AIRPLANE !!
THERE ARE VIRTUALLY NO SCRAPES LIKE YOU WOULD SEE OF A GEAR UP LANDING ON A HARD RUNWAY.
AS IT IS, THERE IS DIRT IMPACTED UNDER SOME BELLY SKINS, THE AUGMENTERS (EXHAUST COVERS) WHICH BOLT ON ARE DENTED,AS ARE SOME ANTENNAS AND THE SKINS THEY MOUNT TO, AND BOTH PROPS, OF COURSE.
YOU WILL SEE IN THE PHOTOS THAT THE GEAR DOORS, INCLUDING THE NOSE GEAR DOORS, SHOW LITTLE DAMAGE.
THE INBOARD LOWER EDGES OF THE FLAPS ARE NOT EVEN SCRAPED UP !!
TO RECOVER THE AIRPLANE FROM THE FIELD, THE AIRPLANE WAS SIMPLY LIFTED UP, THE SELECTOR LEVER PUSHED DOWN, AND THE GEAR LOCKED FULLY DOWN, NO ISSUES. THIS WAS NOT A GEAR COLLAPSE, REMEMBER.
SO WITH LITTLE MORE THAN A PROP REPLACEMENT, THIS AIRPLANE WOULD BE FERRY-ABLE.
EXCEPT.....
THE SOYBEAN FIELD, AND THE STORAGE LOT WHERE THE AIRPLANE IS CURRENTLY LOCATED, ON ITS GEAR AND COMPLETE AS SHOWN, IS 2 FENCES AND A ROAD AWAY FROM THE AIRPORT PROPERTY !!
SO IT WOULD TAKE A SOME DOING TO MOVE THE AIRPLANE TO THE RUNWAY.
MAYBE BACK A FLATBED TRAILER UNDER IT?
OR TAKE DOWN A PORTION OF THE FENCE?
OR TAKE THE WINGS OFF?
IT WILL BE INTERESTING
THIS AIRPLANE IS SOLD WITHOUT RADIOS, AND WITH THE TURN COORDINATOR AND D.G. MISSING, AS SHOWN
THE SALE INCLUDES LOGBOOKS FOR BOTH ENGINES, BOTH 3 BLADE PROPS, AND THE AIRFRAME, AS WELL AS FAA BILL OF SALE.
SOLD VERY CHEAP, SO YOU CAN AFFORD TO REPAIR THE LIGHT DAMAGE (CLEANING OFF THE MUD WILL DO A LOT OF THAT), REPLACE THE PROPS, AND FIND A WAY TO GET IT TO THE AIRPORT.
WE DON"T KNOW ANYONE AT THE DOYLESTOWN AIRPORT, SO THAT WILL ALL BE UP TO YOU.
AT THIS PRICE, YOU ARE BASICALLY BUYING THE ENGINES AT CORE PRICE AND GETTING THE WHOLE AIRFRAME FOR FREE !!
YOU COULD EVEN USE THE AIRPLANE AS A DISPLAY AT THIS PRICE, BUT IT IS A NICE, ONLY SLIGHTLY DAMAGED PLANE, SO I ASSUME YOU WILL FLY IT AGAIN.
GOOD BIDDING !!
. WENTWORTH AIRCRAFT DOES NOT OBTAIN REPAIR ESTIMATES, AS WE DO NOT REPAIR ANY OF OUR AIRPLANES. WE ONLY FACILITATE THE SALE OF REBUILDABLE AIRCRAFT TO THOSE DESIRING TO SAVE MONEY OR HAVE MORE AIRPLANE THAN OTHERWISE POSSIBLE FOR THE MONEY. 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. THIS ITEM IS BEING SOLD WITH A LOW RESERVE, THEREFORE WE FULLY EXPECT THIS LISTING WILL SELL TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER AT THE CLOSE OF THIS AUCTION, SO BID EARLY AND BID HIGH. THERE WILL BE NO CHANCE TO BUY THIS ITEM LATER!! AS WE SET OUR BUY-IT-NOW SO LOW, MANY OF OUR AIRPLANES SELL BY THIS METHOD BEFORE THE END OF THE AUCTION.
