In all honesty, more than a year ago, but nobody is going to pay top dollar for a second hand yellow Foxbat nowadays you’d have to think! Too expensive to respray for those after a bargain.
At a guess some of those early Foxbats would have been purchased at around $95k and now have 3,000 hours, which would mean eng 1,000 HTR. Hard to know really, as they do have fabric on them and the perspex would have to be deteriorating a lot being left outside, so a bit of work to make tidy for a proud private owner.
I heard the people running the auction reckon 30% off retail for the low hour Tecnams. Time will tell! The MR certainly increases the value a bit.
