Item specifics
| Condition: | Used |
I bought it in "05, and have flown it more than 500 trouble-free hours since then, including going from Indiana to TX and OK to Oshkosh and back. It is an incredibly fun airplane...I"d rather fly it than the Cardinal, 172, Pacer, or other airplanes I fly, though those serve their own purposes well. I even took it to 10,500" once (it was cold). I don"t have to explain to most of you guys how great these planes are...most of you already know. I"m selling because I don"t fly it anymore since I have two little girls I always take with me. I see no point in letting the plane sit unused.

When doing work on the plane, I try to do absolutely top notch work using the best parts, or I don"t do it. I striped and painted the eyebrows, made new ceramic coated exaust, stripped/painted the valve covers, just finished "overhauling" the tailwheel, have new bungees ready to go on it, tires are in good shape, refinished the wood cap strips on both sides of the fuselage as they were showing wear, built aluminum skidplates for the pilots feet, etc., i.e., I"ve tried to keep it from getting run-down. There are a couple of spots in the paint that need to be touched up, otherwise there are no issues with this airplane. I"d confidently fly it 1,000 miles tomorrow.
