Comments

This is a beautiful classic aircraft with polished fuselage and new exterior paint. It is fun to fly, economical, and ideal for those wishing to develop their tail dragger skills. It has a low time engine and propellor, SIDS compliant with new cables and pulleys throughout, 12 months maintenance release, and numerou of upgrades.

Engine Specifications

Continental C85, 520 hours TSO (1280 hours remaining), McCauley CM7148 polished propeller, 726 hours since new (1474 hours remaining). Improvements include new C150 exhaust and cabin heat muffs, spin-on oil filter and light weight alternator. I operate on Avgas for convenience but the engine runs equally well on Mogas. Starts easily with dual impulse mags (358 hours remaining to inspection)

Avionics

The instrument panel is unmodified just as you would expect in a classic aircraft. 'T' bar pull to start, turn indicator, ASI, compass, altimeter, VSI, engine speed/tachometer, oil pressure and temperature, Bendix King Comm and intercom, original glovebox and even an ashtray

CAO100.5 instrument checks completed May 2024

Interior

Exterior

This aircraft was restored to an original design in 2023, with new paint on fuselage, cowling, empennage, flaps, ailerons, fairings, gear legs and wing struts. The wing fabric and paint is in good condition.

Functioning landing and taxi lights, Nav lights and beacon.

Perspex windshield and side panels in excellent condition

Additional Features
