Oh hell no!

Which kinda narrows it down somewhat...

The Partial aviator?

Although I believe it needed an engine :ok:

Anyone know what the Islander went for? I saw it still sitting on the apron at KNX last weekend.

just read the report on the Gregson's Auctions page. Poor old OBJ is in need of some seriouis TLC.

That must mean you took the chieftain... Surely not the Seneca!

Actually it was the PA34. My LAME inspected it and found all the rumours about it to be groundless! I flew it back to Perth, and it went flawlessly! Just rumour, so take it with a grain of salt, but I heard the pa31 needed quite a bit to get airworthy.

A lot of people said they heard this and that, but I talked to the guy that actually worked on it, and my independent LAME and it got a (relatively) clean bill of health.

So then, any word on WNI, the C210?

Come on RatsoreA... the Aztruk wasn't that bad :-) Had a few happy hours in her....

As for the Sneaker..... got a fair few in her too... not too bad an aircraft... i'd be interested to see what your engineer did or didn't find as there were a couple of things I know of that needed attention.

Yeah, I spoke to the guy that bought the aztruck, and it wasn't too bad, but it is a little long in the tooth for what I wanted. It and the Seneca were probably the only two that didn't need to much to salvage, and at the right price.
