Description
Very low-time, immaculately maintained, auto gas loving-sipping(4.2 GPH), 140 mph, super easy and fun to fly, very comfortable, extremely affordable to insure, light-sport cross-country cruiser with a 1000 mile range and a chute to boot - for sale to a good home - no FAA Medical required to fly this one - a drivers license will do!
Personally, getting a little long in the tooth, shiny on the top, errant in my ways and thought I'd retire the wings for other 'so-called safer' land based trivial pursuits looked upon more favorably by the wife.
This airplane has always been hangared and cared for dearly. She is just out of a fresh condition, annual(April 2017) and wing inspection and is ready to fly. While the engine will burn 100LL(Avgas) it actually prefers premium Auto gas(ethanol free & no lead) which makes it even cheaper to operate. The parts and maintenance manual come with the sale and simple maintenance can be performed by the owner after attending a two-day school - work on your own airplane and lower maintenance costs!
No major damage history - copies of logs available on request
Aircraft demo, checkout, flight training and delivery can be arranged with my local flight instructor whose very familiar with the airplane. Airplane hangared at Centralia Municipal Airport, Centralia, Illinois 62801
Will be sad to see her leave but she will be thoroughly enjoyed and cherished at her new home.
