    Description
    Wow! Patricia Beery, founder of the acft type club "VG-21 Squadron" is selling her unique 160 HP Varga that she has owned for 22 years. Pampered by her A&P mechanic husband considered by many Varga owners as the guru of the type. Thousands of hours spent on this acft. Overall condition, excellent with recent paint and leather seats. Sporting its cowl machine gun and tail hook, it is a favorite at West Coast air shows. It really is a great flying plane. With push rod controls it is light on the controls and very responsive. It has a service ceiling of 22000'. Climbs like a Super Cub. Center section of wing is a 6 G structure. It is a mechanics plane due to easy access to structure and engine. I just instqalled a new exhaust system ($1,700) . The engine has no oil leaks, great power and is mid time. Unique 160 HP Varga! March 2011 Annual, Cowl Machine Gun & Tail Hook
