I was quite enthusiastic when I first put my plane up for sale. But, something has come up that is concerning. There are as many as 25 years of missing log books, from the day the plane was first sold until about 1993, where the maintenance records pick up again. Since I have owned the plane, of course the logs are extensive.
No reputable lender will lend on this plane. I don't blame them.
So, this issue has already killed one deal and threatens to kill another deal.
It's a nice plane, but the history is not clean.
I'm not going to sweat it. I'll give the plane away to Kars for Kids if I have to.
I have definitely decided to get out of plane ownership, for various reasons.
I know this is a good, safe plane.
I will entertain ANY offer.
Just the parts alone add up. The engine, the prop, the radios. I absolutely have zero interest in parting out this plane, but, to the right person, I could offer a great deal...
