Selling my beautiful 1973 Beechcraft B19 Sport 150. This is not a flight school airplane, it has always been privately owned and hangared and it shows! The paint is shiny and looks great, 9/10. The interior was completely redone a few years ago and is in great condition 10/10. I have all logs since new. Engine is low time, about 900 hours on a 2,000 hour TBO, so lots of time still left. I had a bottom end overhaul done in January, oil analysis showed slight traces of camshaft wear, so I had the work done immediately to replace the cam, tappets, and lifters with all factory new Lycoming parts. The case was sent out to assure factory tolerances (which they said it was like brand new) and compressions on all cylinders are high. I bought it over a year ago to time build with while flight instructing (was instructing at a flight school, never in my airplane). I have the hours that I need now and am starting with an airline in a few weeks so as sad as I am to part ways with this amazing airplane, this will be truly a great airplane for the next lucky person to own it! I bought it from the previous owner in the Utah desert so no corrosion issues. I have done a lot of work in the time I have owned it, so this airplane is coming to your hangar completely ready to fly and enjoy without the hassle of annoying minor maintenance issues arising. To list some of this work done since I've owned it, besides the bottom end engine overhaul: ADS-B 2020 compliant with a UAvionics transceiver installed Rebuilt all four brake cylinders under the rudder pedals New Whalen LED beacon light Rebuilt nose wheel assembly including main bearings and wheel bearings to cure a nose wheel shimmy on landing (straight as an arrow now) Tires are one year old but still look new New fuel selector Brand new custom built muffler (this was a pricey one and hard to find but it will last forever! It is a new baffle-less design that's FAA approved) All new spark plugs with about 40 hours on them - mags were also serviced at that time 40 hours ago Installed plug in oil pan tannis heater New throttle and mixture cables I have an I-Fly vfr gps panel mounted that it a wonderfully powerful navigator that comes with the airplane (almost a $1000 value). It has built in instrument charts and approach charts, sectionals, adsb weather and traffic, notams, fuel prices, it is really an amazing tool, you can leave the IPad at home! I took me almost a year of searching to find this airplane and nothing I looked at even came close to being in as great of condition as this one. You can look for yourself at comparable makes and models, nothing even comes close! This bird has been well cared for over the years and it shows, and you can be the one to take advantage of the find of a lifetime with this one. The fuselage is wide and comfortable, it has 60 gallon gas tanks so it has long legs (a 7 hour endurance), it is great on gas and very economical to fly (6.5 gallons per hour exactly), and of course it is a Beechcraft so it is extremely well built. These airplanes were even capable of aerobatics so that goes to show how strong they are. I have many interested parties at my local airport so please get in touch if you are interested, I will get back to you right away. Thanks for looking!
