Events over the past few months are whispering it is time to move on to other adventures. Namely Experimental Light Sport. So I thought I would post it first here to allow a Club Member to acquire for themselves this faithful and fantastically performing machine at a decent price. Approximately 5,000 hours on the airframe. Approximately 400 hours SMOH on O-320E2D. Since many folks put a lot of stock in what it would have in the instrument panel. The following were installed right before we purchased it. Apollo 360 GPS. KI-701 and KT-76A. KLN-89B, Garmin 327, KI-206, KN-75, MX-170B and MX-11. It will come with an extra pair of long range wings. And Cleveland main wheels and brakes to replace the existing three piece McCauley's. Thinking about $24,000 presently. I am going to insist on no first time buyers. And that the buyer be comfortable in maintaining their own aircraft. Y'all know how to get a hold of me.
February 19th of this year was when I posted this initially. Wow! Eight months ago! My reasoning at the time for wanting to sell our 150?? I wanted to get into an aircraft in which I would have basically have a free hand with it's maintenance and modification. And to get out from under the requirement of the third class medical. I started this endeavor absolutely confident that within a short time I would find that aircraft that would fit our needs and budget. Boy, was I wrong!! I have been into Barnstormers and other selling sites nearly every day. And, here it is eight months later with absolutely no fruit to show for the time and effort expended. Except having the knowledge of added confirmation that the 150 or 152 does it's mission very well. And is a very hard airplane to replace with like or kind.
