Maybe you should just go and take a look, Greg, and give us all a pilot's report?

Yeah, see if you can do a test flight. We'll await your evaluation <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I hate to ask this, but what do yall think this plane is worth? And please dont start that "I'd give 28K for it" nonsense.

OK! I would give $25,000 for it!

Let's see.............hmmmmmmmmmm..........It appears to be a bit prettier than Mr. Ed. But not quite as nice as Wayne's Sporthawk! OK! For real? Personally, I would choose Wayne's Sporthawk over this aircraft so some where in the high $30,000.

Now, what is the buyer asking? It is an Aerobat, so I bet the seller is betting on that to bring a higher price. So, my gut is saying he has set his reserve in the range of $50,000? Maybe $55,000+.

Upon further reflection, seeing how he has written the ad........... $60,000.

Boy I wish I could fly it. I took my 100 ponies up to 9500' today and it took awhile to get there even in these cool temps. Interesting to see full throttle at 2500 RPM max and 80 MPH indicated. The slightest nudge of mixture control caused a noticeable loss of engine power.

As I enjoyed the straight in view of a class C airport some 20+ miles distant, a Boeing caught my eye as it passed approx. 2000' BELOW me. I can only imagine what was said as they watched me overhead!

Greg!

Probably they were thinkin' about those millionaires that fly these private airplanes and how we are in THEIR airspace that has been divinely ordained for their exclusive use.

Or maybe, they were thinkin' "Gee. That sure is one lucky $*@ in that thing."
