The sooner they fit brakes to these ground handling wheels the better.

"Boss, we got it to .1 on the mains but I don't reckon I can take it out on that job on monday. Yeah, yeah it's parked as close as I could get it to the hangar"........"About that time off I asked for"



Anyone know the story behind this one? I could not imagine ringing my boss and telling him that I just did this.

Seen On Ebay!

"Fantastic, one owner MD500. Low component hours. Fresh metallic silver paintwork. Low component hours. ADF, Autopilot (no manual), SAS (non-operational), RADALT, Leather Upholstery (Pilot's seat base slightly stained). Low component hours. Needs minor work to get flying again, $2 - 3,000 tops. Great school project for someone. Low component hours. Re-build and fly in your back garden! Serious offers considered but nothing silly please. Starting bid $1, no reserve........"
