This Powered Parachute was purchased
April of 2001. I am the original
owner. It has never been damaged in any
way. It flies perfectly. It has always been kept indoors. The Rotax engine runs perfectly. The Rotax is the 582 Blue Head, dual carbs, E-drive
gearbox with electric start, and water cooled.
The engine and craft has 168 hours of flight time. New fuel and oil lines plus the fuel pump
rebuild have been done. It has a good
battery. The chute is an Apco 500 Marc
IV. The chute is packed in a Buckey
parachute bag and I use Buckeye no tangle line sleeves. The craft has Trim Tabs, Buddy Pegs, Strobe Light,
and runs an Ivo prop. The round mirror
that Buckeye used for fuel sighting was replaced with an electric fuel gauge. The craft has a front brake that won’t stop
you, but helps slow you down. I have all
the books, receipts and all other papers that came with the craft and
parachute.
I had one mishap where I landed in a field with tall grass. At the time
of starting for a take off, my prop touched the chute causing a small tear. The chute was sent to MoJo for repair and
certification. I have taken a picture of the repair for you to view in the
listing. One of the line sleeves has a small tear and I listed a picture of
that also. The strobe light causes me grief
once in awhile where it stops working.
It starts working when it wants too.
I believe I have a loose connection that I cannot find. I have added pictures of the trailer that IS
NOT included in the action. If you are
the winner of the auction the trailer is available, if you want it for a fair
price. The trailer is an aluminum snow
mobile trailer with a tilt bed. It is
very light weight and works great as a power parachute trailer. Any one wanting to inspect the Buckey is welcome to do so before the end of auction.$500 deposit through PayPal. Cash when picked up. As is no warranty. Current date: 2016-07-04
