Thanks for the info gentlemen. Ron, the add represents the owners intentions but not reality. I saw the plane in person and wanted to fly it only to learn it is out of annual. I spoke to the owner today and it is going in next week. The owner seems like a stand up guy, I don't know the mechanic doing his annual.
If anyone knows of a good resource for the pre buy, I would greatly appreciate. Plane is located in Livermore, Ca.
