I asked and it is supposed to have all the STCs paperwork and the wings have long range fuel tanks.

It's got nice seats!

That looks like an aweful lot of work and parts to make that flyable again. I wonder if it'll just get parted out by someone, instead?

From the looks of things, it just did not ground loop. It ended up on it's back, (Look at the vertical stabilizer.) I noticed that the pictures only show the bottoms of the wings..............

I would say that there is more to the story then is being told?

Hard to tell about the vertical fin Bill...doesn't look bad enough to have been on it's back, and the antennas look intact. But...you could be right. The bird is in serious condition for sure and is a financial total loss. Only someone with the time and skill (and really cheap parts) could rebuild it for themselves and come out on it.

Yeah, that looks like it will be a project for someone who enjoys repairing airplanes (and can legally do so) and not an opportunity for profit. I hope someone brings it back to life.

Narrative (ACCP): On July 20, 2001, about 2045 Mountain daylight time, a tailwheel-equipped Cessna 150, N10RH, sustained substantial damage subsequent to a nose over while landing at McCarley Field, Blackfoot, Idaho.

#FAA1 Accident/Incident Occurred on: 2001-07-20
Narrative: (.19) ON JULY 20, 2001, AT 1909 MOUNTAIN DAYLIGHT TIME, A TAILWHEEL-EQUIPPED CESSNA 150, N10RH, SUSTAINED SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE SUBSEQUENT TO A NOSE OVER WHILE LANDING AT MCCARLEY FIELD, BLACKFOOT, IDAHO. THE AIRPLANE IS OWNED BY THE PILOT, AND WAS BEING OPERATED AS A PERSONAL CROSS-COUNTRY FLIGHT UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF TITLE 14, CFR PART 91, WHEN THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED. VISUAL METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS PREVAILED, AND NO FLIGHT PLAN HAD BEEN FILED. THE CERTIFIED PILOT AND HIS PASSENGER WERE NOT INJURED. THERE WAS NO FIRE AND NO REPORT OF ELT ACTIVATION. REPORTEDLY, THE PILOT WAS LANDING ON RUNWAY 19. SHORTLY AFTER TOUCHDOWN, THE PILOT ENCOUNTERED A GUST OF WIND AND THE AIRPLANE NOSE OVER. THE AIRPLANE SUSTAINED DAMAGE TO THE VERTICAL STABILIZER, HORIZONTAL STABILIZER AND FUSELAGE. (-23) ON 07/20/01, PILOT WAYNE TROM WAS ON A FERRY FLIGHT FROM NAMPA, IDAHO TO DODGE CENTER, MINNESOTA LANDED AT BLACKFOOT, IDAHO. ON LANDING AT BLACKFOOT RUNWAY 19 THE PILOT LOST CONTROL OF THE AIRPLANE AND GROUND LOOPED. ACCORDING TO THE PILOT THERE WAS A QUARTERING CROSS WIND FROM THE LEFT AT 6 KNOTS GUSTING TO 10 KNOTS. DURING THE GROUD LOOP THE AIRPLANE NOSED OVER O N ITS BACK CAUSING SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE. THERE WAS A PILOT AND A PASSENGER ON BOARD AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT, WHICH IS CONTRARY TO THE SPECIAL FLIGHT PERMIT ITEM 2. ITEM 2 OF THE SPECIAL FLIGHT PERMIT LIMITED IT TO THE PILOT ONLY FOR THIS FLIGHT.

I asked about the wings:

"Little damage to the left wing, none structually. Right wing rear spar, main tank, wing tip not tip tank damage.."

I would imagine regardless how good and how cheap the work can be done,, the buyer will have to invest close to $30,000 for repairs. Having to pay for the thing, doesn't look like it's much worth the money. Maybe it would be worth the purchase price if parted out,,

US $11,350.00

I wonder what it would cost to transfer those STC's to another aircraft? That might be the true value in this airplane, since the conversion parts and STC's are already there?
