2007 VAN"S RV-8A, 393 HOURS TT, DAMAGED, FOR PARTS, CHEAP !!
THE RV-8A IS THE NEWEST DESIGN IN VAN"S TANDEM SEATING LINE, AN UPGRADE IN EVERY WAY FROM THE EARLIER RV-4.
THE "A" VERSION REPLACES THE TAILWHEEL WITH A NOSEWHEEL, FOR SURER LANDINGS IN ALL WIND CONDITIONS, BUT KEEPS THE PERFORMANCE AND EXCELLENT HANDLING THAT THE AIRPLANE WAS DESIGNED FOR.
THIS AIRPLANE HAS 393 HOURS TOTAL AIRFRAME TIME SINCE NEW.
NOT A SITTER OR OLD HULK, IT WAS LAST ANNUALED 10/28/2016, SO IT"S STILL IN CALENDAR ANNUAL (BUT I WOULDN"T TRY TO FLY IT HOME !!)
SOLD WITH LOGBOOK, FAA BILL OF SALE AND FAA AIRWORTHINESS CERTIFICATE
DON"T BLAME THE PILOT FOR THE DAMAGED SHOWN, THE ENGINE QUIT (FUEL DELIVERY PROBLEM) AND HE MADE A DEADSTICK, OFF AIRPORT LANDING IN A FIELD, AND DIDN"T KILL HIMSELF !!
"ANY LANDING THAT YOU CAN WALK AWAY FROM IS A GOOD LANDING"
THE AIRPLANE SUFFERED DAMAGE, AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PHOTOS, BUT IT IS ALSO INTERESTING TO NOT WHAT ISN"T HURT, OR AT LEAST NOT DESTROYED>
AS THE AIRCRAFT DID NOT FLIP OVER ONTO IT"S BACK, THE SLIDING CANOPY AND FRAME DO NOT APPEAR DAMAGED !!
THERE IS GLARE IN THE PHOTOS, BUT THE PLEXIGLASS IS NOT DAMAGED !! THE WINDSHIELD ALSO LOOKS GOOD !
ALSO SINCE IT DIDN"T GO OVER, THE LOWER COWL HAS ONLY A SMALL AREA OF FIBERGLASS CRACKING, BUT IT IS INTACT, AND EVEN THE SCOOP ISNT HURT !!
THE TOP COWL HAS SOME CRACKING FORWARD, BUT NOT ALL OVER.
BOTH MAIN GEAR LEGS ARE INTACT, AND THERE IS NO APPARENT DAMAGE TO EITHER 500X5 CLEVELAND MAIN WHEELS OR BRAKES !!
THE NOSE GEAR TUBE IS BENT, BUT THE CLEVELAND NOSEWHEEL ALSO LOOKS GOOD.
INSIDE, THERE ARE GREY PADDED SEAT BACKS AND BOTTOMS FOR BOTH FRON AND REAR POSITION, ALONG WITH DUAL CONTROLS
THE FRONT SEATER HAS A MULTI-BUTTON STICK GRIP AT HIS CONTROL
AS YOU CAN SEE, MOST OF THE INSTRUMENTS HAVE BEEN REMOVED, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE AIRSPEED INDICATOR, BUT ALL OF THE SWITCHGEAR, INCLUDING CIRCUIT BREAKER SWITCHES AND CIRCUIT BREAKERS.
THE THROTTLE AND MIXTURE CABLES ARE INTACT AND THE HANDLES MOUNTED TO A NEAT SIDE CONSOLE.
BOTH FRONT AND REAR SEAT HAVE SHOULDER HARNESSES AND SEATBELTS.
THERE IS DAMAGE TO BOTH WINGS, AND THEY WERE CUT CLOSE TO THE FUSELAGE DURING THE TRANSPORTATION PHASE.
ALL OF THE FIREWALL MOUNTED ITEMS SHOWN IN THE PHOTOS ARE INCLUDED
YOU HAVE PAPERWORK AND A LOT TO START WITH IF YOU ARE ADVENTUROUS ENOUGH TO REBUILD THIS AIRPLANE, BUT IT SEEMS MORE REASONABLE TO BUY IT FOR PIECES, AND IF YOU HAPPEN TO BE BUILDING AN 8 OR 8A, YOU WILL BE AMAZED AT ALL THE PARTS YOU CAN USE, AND EVEN HOW MUCH TIS PREVIOUSLY BUILT AND FLYING AIRPLANE WILL HELP YOU AS A 3D EXAMPLE !!
OR JUST SIT IN THE COCKPIT UNDER THAT CANAPY AND PLAY FIGHTER PILOT !!

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. 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!

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!!
