First, I'll apologize for this not being 150/152 related. But it does involve aircraft so I would appreciate your indulgence. I am presently selling a Fisher FP-202 Koala. The present asking price is $8,500.00. I have been exchanging messages with a fellow for a week or so. I have been pretty insistant of wanting the buyer to inspect the aircraft first before any money changes hands. Following is his last message. It is copy and pasted as written. I would appreciate comment on it:

Ok your method of payment is ok by me, but for the inspection of the plane i talk to an engineer who is a friend and what he said is that he will also like to see the plane so i have decided that we are going to be the two coming for the inspect, so i will send you a check, as you said that you have a lot of people asking you to sell the plane for them i will send you the two check as you state in your mail, but one of the check will been $4,500 and the other one will carry $5000, and you will be sending balance on each to my that my friend who in an engineer in canada to pay for his transpotation to come over to your place.
Please i will like to tell you that the payment will be send to you very soon and i will be very happy if you can take the ad off net to avoid other interested buyer and also i will like tell you that i and my engineer will be coming as soon as you said that you have receive the payment, so will can now book a date to meet you but i will be coming from north carolina while my friend who is an engineer will be coming from canada and we can both fly the plane together.
So please send me the name that will be on the check and the address that i will send it to, please don't send me a p.o. box address i want your personal house address so that the check can be handover to you in person, and the address must not change to the location of where the plane is, or you can send me the address where the plane is located but let the payment arrive first.
