Interior / Exterior

Interior 8/10 - all very clean and no rips

Exterior 7/10 - paint is in really good condition but faded in a few places and a few chips missing.

There's one hangar-rash spot about 3" wide on the right wing leading edge...I'm told by the prior owner it's from a ladder falling against the wing.

Remarks

Cruises smoothly at 120mph

I've owned this plane since 04/2022 and put about 300 hours on it myself, with 200 of them being in the 12 months.

Flown often, hangared all but 4 months of my ownership and (I'm told) always hangared previously.

This plane will qualify for LSA under the (currently proposed) MOSAIC limitations, assuming the current draft definition is passed - clean stall speed is 50.4 knots (58mph).

The sun-visors are a lifesaver....don't buy a plane that doesn't have them!

Also included are the cowl plugs and form-fitting cabin/window cover (bought them for the short term I had it on a tie-down), and however many oil filters I have left of this 6-pack when I sell the plane (I do my own oil changes and am currently flying 15-20 hours/month).

Plane will have a new annual, ELT battery, and pitot/static check the first week of 10/2024.
