To my knowledge, This is One of only 2 Flying, “professionally built” Allison equipped Glasair lll known to exist!
The Glasair lll is a Non-Pressurized, 2-Seat, Side By Side, “Fully Aerobatic”,

270/kts to 290/kts “economy cruise” that burns between
17 to 20-gph @ 17,000’
100% Power = 310+ knots , in low to mid 20’s
I haven’t flown this aircraft over 17,000’ alt
Climb, I usually see a little Over 4,000/fpm
This plane needs Nothing, it flys & handles like a Bonanzas on a bottle of Steroids. OWNER FINANCING WITH SUBSTANTIAL DOWN AND GOOD Collateral

The Engine ALONE, is worth More than I am asking for the Entire Aircraft !
