I agree with Charles! My neighbor has one, and it is a nice bird! Those who own them tend to keep them, and when they do decide to sell, their pride is usually reflected in the asking price. I believe Beech offered it as a more expensive alternative in the well established 152 market, with little success. As there were so few built, most prospective buyers know little about them, and are drawn towards aircraft they are more familiar with. I think longer waits for sales is common with any of the rarer aircraft, and is usually no reflection on the aircrafts airworthiness, desirability, or value.
