Wow, I agree Lionel. You have to wonder what the "rest of the story" is on the plane? Are they parting it out for some reason? Seems like a cryin' shame to pull that out! Very nice! Those seats look very comfortable compared to mine! MM

The description said the plane was damaged in a wind storm. The seller is from minersville, PA. Any bad storm there lately?

I would imagine, by the time a person does all of that kind of interior work, you'd be in the $1500 plus range. Given the quality of the work in the pictures, anything under $1000 would be a good deal. I don't think much of the carpet mind you, looks cheap, compared to the rest of the interior,

The airport for Minersville, PA would be Schuylkill County/Zerbe (ZER) where I got Duchess painted. The paint shop, Three in the Green, does interiors too.

intior?

It wouldn't be too surprising in today's world of poor grammar and spelling to see this mistake once, but he repeats this spelling of interior several times!

I've got one word for this seller:

"spellcheck."

Or, is that two words?

In fact...

We did have some REALLY strong winds two weekends ago...so strong I had to adjust my arrival at sunrise just to get into Central PA to tie-down for the rest of the day....AIRMETS through the weekends for severe gusts. Could be his plane got flipped. I have also known folks who forgot to install gust locks only to find control surfaces really bent/damaged from high winds! That is too bad, Hung. Anyone who put that much into the interior was probably pretty serious about taking care of the rest of the plane. (assumption) MM
