2003 ROBINSON R-22 BETA II HELICOPTER, PARTS, REBUILD OR DISPLAY, CHEAP !!
THE R-22 IS THE FIRST HELICOPTER THAT WOULD ACCURATELY BE DESCRIBED AS ECONOMICAL.
WITH SIMPLE SYSTEMS, A LIGHTWEIGHT, RELIABLE POWERPLANT, AND REASONABLE TIME BETWEEN OVERHAUL ON THE COMPONENTS, THEY HAVE BEEN IN PRODUCTION SINCE THE EARLY 1990"S
THIS IS A LATER MODEL, BUILT IN 2003, AND IT IS THE UPGRADED BETA 2 VERSION, WHICH COMES WITH LOADS OF IMPROVEMENTS OVER THE EARLIER MODELS.
THIS HELICOPTER HAS 5562 HOURS TOTAL TIME, AND ONLY 1039 HOURS SINCE A COMPLETE AIRFRAME OVERHAUL/UPDATE !
UNFORTUNATELY, IT SUFFERED DAMAGE WHEN THE PILOT ATTEMPTED TO LAND ON A PLATFORM ON THE TOP OF A VOLCANO, AS PART OF HIS TRAINING. HE MISSED SOME OF THE PLATFORM, AND ROLLED OVER, DAMAGING THE HELICOPTER.
I DID SAY VOLCANO !!
DORMANT, OF COURSE, BUT A VOLCANO, NONE THE LESS.
THIS HELICOPTER IS LOCATED ON THE BIG ISLAND OF HAWAII, AT THE KONA AIRPORT !!!
AS A RESULT OF THE ROLL OVER, THE HELICOPTER SUSTAINED DAMAGE TO:
BOTH MAIN ROTOR BLADES
ONE TAIL ROTOR BLADE
THE TAILCONE AT IT"S ATTACHMENT POINT
THE FIREWALL
THE FUSELAGE ON THE LOWER REAR NEAR THE REAR SKID ATTACHMENT
THE LEFT SIDE BUBBLE
THE UPPER MAST AREA
AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTOS, ALTHOUGH THERE IS OBVIOUS DAMAGE HERE, THE HELICOPTER IS INTACT AND STILL LOOKS LIKE A HELICOPTER !!
THE ENGINE SUFFERED A STOPPAGE WHEN THE ROTORS IMPACTED THE HILL, SO IT HAS BEEN REMOVED, WITH IT"S ACCESSORIES, AND IS NOT INCLUDED.
THE FIBERGLASS SHROUD, WHICH GOES AROUND THE REAR OF THE ENGINE, AND THE COOLING FAN, ARE INCLUDED.
ALL CABLES AND LINES WERE DISCONNECTED, SO THAT A REPLACEMENT ENGINE CAN BE INSTALLED, IF YOU SO DESIRE.
IF YOUR ONLY NEED IS FOR PARTS, THERE ARE LOTS OF GOOD ITEMS INSIDE.
THE INSTRUMENT POD IS INTACT (ALTHOUGH THE INSTRUMENTS AND RADIOS THEMSELVES WERE REMOVED), AND THE SEATS, PEDALS, CYCLIC AND COLLECTIVE ARE ALL INTACT.
BOTH CABIN DOORS ARE INTACT, WITH GOOD GLASS AND LATCHES
THE SKIDS ARE INTACT, AND THE COPTER SITS UP NORMALLY.
THE VERTICAL FIN AND HORIZONTAL FIN ARE INTACT, SO IT DOESNT APPEAR TO HAVE ROLLED ON BOTH SIDES
THIS HELICOPTER IS SOLD WITH FAA BILL OF SALE AND AIRFRAME LOGBOOKS, SO YOU WILL BE ABLE TO REGISTER IT IN YOUR NAME WITH THE FAA (ONLY $5, A STEAL)
IF YOUR NEED IS FOR PARTS, THIS R-22 HAS MANY
IF YOU WANT TO FIX IT UP, IT"S A BIG PROJECT, BUT THE PURCHASE PRICE IS VERY LOW
OR MAYBE YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A MOVIE PROP, AN OUTDOOR DISPLAY OR SIGN FOR YOUR BUSINESS, OR SOME OTHER NEAT REASON TO HAVE YOUR OWN HELICOPTER.
THE GREAT NEWS IS THAT IT IS IN HAWAII !!
IF YOU ARE IN HAWAII, YOU CAN SAVE ALL THE TRANSPORTATION COSTS TO GET IT TOO YOU FROM THE MAINLAND !
IF YOU ARE NOT FROM HAWAII, BUT WANT TO GO, THIS IS A GOOD, POSSIBLY TAX DEDUCTIBLE REASON TO GO, AND MAYBE EVEN BRING ALONG A "HELPER" !
IT WILL FIT INTO A 20 FOOT CONTAINER, AND CONTAINERS ARE MUCH CHEAPER GOING FROM HAWAII TO THE MAINLAND, BECAUSE THEY OFTEN HAVE TO SEND THEM EMPTY.
THIS IS A CHEAP WAY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY.

GOOD BIDDING
AS WENTWORTH AIRCRAFT IS LOCATED IN CRYSTAL,MINNESOTA, NOT……KONA HAWAII ..…….. WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PERSONALLY ASSIST WITH THE REPAIR OR MOVING OF THIS AIRPLANE SORRY. 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. DONT WAIT TOO LONG HOPING TO SNIPE IT AT THE END, AND BE DISAPPOINTED ! WENTWORTH AIRCRAFT INC IS THE #1 VOLUME SELLER IN THE USED AIRCRAFT MARKET! WE ARE THE REAL BRICK AND MORTAR WENTWORTH AIRCRAFT YOU HAVE SEEN ADVERTISED ON PAGE 6 OF TRADE-A-PLANE, AT OUR BOOTHS AT OSHKOSH, SUN-AND-FUN, AOPA, AND ELSEWHERE FOR OVER 20 YEARS !!!!

IF YOU ARE NOT SURE ABOUT ANY FACET OF ONE OF OUR LISTINGS, PLEASE ASK ! SO THAT ALL BIDDERS HAVE THE SAME INFORMATION,WE PREFER NOT TO ANSWER DETAIL QUESTIONS BY PHONE. OUR PHONE SALES STAFF HAS NO DIRECT KNOWLEDGE OF THE ITEMS ON EBAY. DUE TO THE AUCTION FORMAT, IT WOULD NOT BE FAIR FOR THE HIGH BIDDER NOT TO BUY THE ITEM LISTED, SO TREAT YOUR BID LIKE A HANDSHAKE!! YOUR BID IS NOT A RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL, BUT RATHER A CONTRACT TO BUY OUR AIRPLANE AT YOUR BID PRICE SO BE SURE YOU HAVE ENOUGH INFORMATION, AND FUNDSIN PLACE. A NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT OF $2,000 IS DUE WITHIN 72 HOURS OF THE BID CLOSING.
