THIS IS A NICE LITTLE 4 PLACE 140 !!
THE 1972 MODEL 140"S LIKE THIS ONE HAVE A MODERN DASH LAYOUT:
QUADRANT THROTTLE AND MIXTURE
STANDARD 6 PACK INSTRUMENT LAYOUT, WITH CENTER STACK FOR AVIONICS, READABLE ENGINE GUAGES, AND MODERN CIRCUIT BREAKERS AND SWITCHES
TOE BRAKES !!
THIS ONE HAS THE OPTIONAL 4 SEAT INTERIOR !!
THE PILOT"S SEAT HAS THE OPTIONAL AND DESIRABLE VERTICALLY ADJUST FEATURE
WINGTIPS HAVE BEEN UPGRADED TO METCO STYLE "HORNER" TIPS, WHICH INCREASE SPEED AND ALLOW FOR GREATER CONTROL DURING LANDING.
ALSO ADDED ARE WING TO FUSELAGE "FILLET" FAIRINGS, WHICH ALSO INCREASE CRUISE SPEED
THE WHEEL PANTS NOT ONLY MAKE THE AIRPLANE FASTER, BUT A CHEROKEE WITHOUT THEM REALLY LOOKS "UNFINISHED"
THIS AIRCRAFT SUSTAINED ISOLATED DAMAGE WHEN IT WAS PUSHED BY HIGH WINDS BACKWARD INTO ANOTHER AIRCRAFT, WHILE PARKED AT THE CHANDLER, ARIZONA (PHOENIX) AIRPORT.
THE DAMAGE TO THE FUSELAGE IS ONLY TO THE AFT TAILCONE, WHICH IS BUCKLED ON THE LEFT SIDE, AND SLIGHTLY DENTED AT THE BOTTOM AFT EDGE.
THE FIBERGLASS LOWER TAILCONE CLOSE-OUT IS ALSO BROKEN
THE DAMAGE TO THE TAILCONE IS TO THE LEFT SIDE ONLY, AS THE RIGHT SIDE IS PERFECTLY STRAIGHT, AS SHOWN IN THE PHOTO.
THE DAMAGE TO THE SIDE OF THE TAILCONE APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN FROM AN IMPACT TO THE FIBERGLASS TIP ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE HORIZONTAL STABILATOR !!!
THE FIBERGLASS IS CRACKED, BUT THE STAB ITSELF LOOKS TOTALLY STRAIGHT!!
THERE IS A SMALL BEND IN THE OUTBOARD AFT EDGE OF THE RIGHT TRIM TAB, BUT THIS IS JUST A FOLDED SKIN, AND SHOULD STRAIGHTEN OUT FINE.
THE ONLY OTHER DAMAGE TO THE WHOLE AIRPLANE IS THE LEFT AILERON SKIN, WHICH IS DENTED ON THE TRAILING EDGE.
THE WING IS NOT DAMAGED IN THIS AREA, OR AT ALL, ON EITHER SIDE, AND THE FLAPS, RIGHT AILERON AND TIPS WERE NOT DAMAGED
THE LANDING GEAR IS ALSO ALL UNDAMAGED, INCLUDING THE WHEEL PANTS (LEFT TIRE IS FLAT)
THIS AIRPLANE WAS JUST ANNUALED 7/2015, SO THE ANNUAL IS GOOD UNTIL 7/31/2016 !!
THE O-320 150 H.P. ENGINE HAS ONLY 810 HOURS SINCE MAJOR (2000 HOUR TBO). THERE IS NO DAMAGE TO THE PROPELLOR OR ENGINE, NO PROP STRIKE OR SUDDEN STOPPAGE !!!
GLASS IS ALL INTACT, AND THERE IS NO VISIBLE DEBRIS DAMAGE TO THE AIRCRAFT
ALL FLIGHT AND ENGINE INSTRUMENTATION LOOKS GOOD.
IT IS THE VERY RARE 140 THAT HAS AN AUTOPILOT INSTALLED, BUT THIS ONE DOES !!
THE AUTOFLIGHT 2 SYSTEM IS SIMILAR IN FEATURES AND DESIGN TO THE S-TEC 20 AND 40, AND IT PROVIDES WING LEVELING AND RADIO TRACKING FOR A STRESS RELIEVER ON CROSS-COUNTRY TRIPS.
ONCE YOU HAVE FLOWN A CHEROKEE WITH AN AUTOPILOT, YOU NEVER WANT TO GO BACK, BUT THEY ARE EXPENSIVE, AND REALLY EXPENSIVE TO INSTALL !!
THIS AIRPLANE IS ALREADY EQUIPPED !!
ORIGINALLY EQUIPPED WITH 2 DIGITAL NAV-COMS AND AN AUDIO PANEL WITH BUILT-IN INTERCOM, THOSE ITEMS HAVE BEEN REMOVED, AND ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THIS AUCTION. STILL INSTALLED, WIRED AND INCLUDED ARE THE TRAYS FOR THOSE UNITS, AND EVEN 1 VOR INDICATOR, SO SLIDING SIMILAR ITEMS IN THIER TRAYS WOULD BE EASY, OR USE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO UPDATE ONE OR BOTH TO WHAT YOU REALLY WANT !!
STILL INSTALLED AND INCLUDED ARE THE TRANSPONDER WITH MODE "C" AND THE DIGITAL DME.
PAINT IS A NEWER SCHEME AND LOOKS PRETTY GOOD !!
THIS AIRPLANE IS OF COURSE VERY REPAIRABLE, BUT THERE IS NOBODY ON THE FIELD TO DO IT, SO PLAN ON YOUR MECHANIC STIFFENING THE TAIL TO FERRY IT OUT, OR DISASSEMBLE FOR TRUCKING IF YOU MUST.
WE WILL PAY THE TIEDOWN FEE FOR 30 DAYS AT NO CHARGE, AND IT IS ONLY $50 PER MONTH IF YOU NEED MORE TIME.
AS AN INCENTIVE TO HIT THE VERY REASONABLE BUY IT NOW PRICE, WE WILL INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING REPAIR PARTS AT NO COST TO THE BUYER, IF YOU USE THIS OPTION TO BUY:
TAILCONE SKINS, BULKHEADS AND FORMERS, FROM THE CABIN BACK, OR JUST THE LAST 3 FEET, YOUR CHOICE ON HOW YOU WANT TO MAKE THE REPAIR
RIGHT FIBERGLASS HORIZONTAL TIP
LOWER TAILCONE CAP
ALL PARTS ARE FOB MINNEAPOLIS, OR PHOENIX (WE HAVE THEM AVAILABLE IN BOTH PLACES) PICK THEM UP FREE OR HAVE THEM SHIPPED AT YOUR COST
THIS WILL MAKE YOU A NICE AIRPLANE TO LEARN TO FLY, BUILD LOTS OF CHEAP TIME, OR PUNCH HOLES IN THE SKY, AND IT WILL NOT BREAK THE BANK TO DO IT !!
SOLD WITH AIRFRAME AND ENGINE LOGS AND FAA BILL OF SALE.
PRICED AT THE VALUE OF THE ENGINE AND PROP ONLY, SO YOU ARE GETTING THE WHOLE AIRPLANE FOR FREE !!
YOU SURE CANT DO THAT VERY OFTEN !!
GOOD BIDDING, OR BUY IT NOW AND GET THE PARTS !!
