Description
New Avionics package works well.Inspections are not current due to engine problem and current owners unwilling to put more time and money into right engine repair.

National Flight has verbally stated that right engine repair is under warranty until Nov.2015, and that warranty is transferable to a third party.
The aircraft engines turn freely and remain within temperature limits during start and taxi. The left engine makes slightly better then rated takeoff power when evaluated using TAKEOFF POWER CHECK CHART Figure 4-4 of the AFM.

The aircraft is located inside the main hangar at M08 airport in Bolivar, TN. A power cart is available for engine start and avionics testing.
