Item specifics
Condition: Used Make: Cessna
Model Year: 1946
Beautifully restored 1946 Cessna 140. Economical to operate (4gph fuel burn) and a joy to fly! It has a low-time 85hp Continental C-85 engine with only 130hrs since major overhaul, a new Marvel-Schebler carburetor, and compression in the mid-70s.
An extensive annual inspection was done in October 2015 and included rebuilding the horizontal stabilizer. There are about 3300hrs on the airframe and the Ceconite wings were last covered in approximately the late 1980s. The airplane has been hangared and the fabric was punch tested at the last annual. Airframe and engine logs go back to the 1960s.
A Bruce"s Custom Cover is also included. Avionics have been kept to a minimum to preserve the original look of the panel (it only has a comm radio with intercom). This aircraft is located in Columbia, California (O22). Message me if you would like to come see this fun airplane. Thanks for looking!
