“Has a few small areas where there is paint chipping. The multi-function display is not picking up a tach signal, so a separate Tiny Tach is currently recording the RPMs. A tach pickup needs to be installed. The aircraft is slower than it should be in cruise, and rudder is necessary to keep the ball centered in cruise.”
Make: Sonex Model Year: 2010
This is a 2010 Sonex that is powered by a 100 hp William Wynne Corvair engine. The aircraft and engine currently have 45 hours total time. This is the builder"s second Sonex - the first one is owned by an airline pilot in the St. Louis area. The builder completed several kit planes over the span of his life. The builder passed away from cancer shortly after receiving the special airworthiness certificate. A friend of mine completed the phase 1 flight test plan and I am completing the annual condition inspection. I am assisting a friend of the family in selling the aircraft. We have all of the necessary legal documents to do so.
Here are some of the specifics:
A William Wynne kit was purchased and the engine was assembled by a professional engine builder. It has the fifth bearing and an Aerocarb throttle body. The engine is currently tuned and is performing very well.
The prop is a Sensenich W54JYSL-44 wood prop
There is an MGL Stratomaster multi-function display in the cockpit, and a Microair Avionics M760 radio. The intercom is a Flightcom 403MC. There is not a transponder installed, but there is a cutout that would allow a Microair or Becker transponder.
I have the original build plans, the logbooks, the registration, the special airworthiness certificate, the weight and balance, the phase 1 & 2 test plan data, the Sonex flight manual and the manuals for the avionics.
I list this aircraft as a Corvair powered Sonex, but this combination is commonly referred to as a Cleanex. It is also listed this way on the special airworthiness certificate. I list it as a Sonex, as that is the more familiar name.
The aircraft is hangared at the Malcolm-McKinnon airport in St. Simons Island, GA (KSSI), and can be available for viewing upon scheduled request.
