Here a guy has possibly saved me $2,500... that's not a bad return for my $25 contribution to the list host! Thanks, John. And FWIW, I went and found the post you mentioned, and it actually says "$7800 or best offer" and was posted in January of this year. I'm going up to look at it next weekend, Nov. 3, and maybe see if he'll take $7K cash. Heck, that's getting down into my allowance/discretionary "no permission needed" spending money amount ;o)Oscar ZunigaMedford, Oregonmailto: taildrags(at)hotmail.comwebsite at http://www.flysquirrel.net________________________________________________________________________________

Ernie says it's out of annual, so at a minimum the engine would need to be 'gone through' before becoming airworthy again. And you are right, he says it has something like 460 hrs. in the 16 years he's had it, so that's not a lot of flying. BTW- price is now down to $6800 ;o)And Corky wrote:>Happily all mounting holes matched perfectly.

Sounds like y'all done it right!Oscar ZunigaMedford, Oregonmailto: taildrags(at)hotmail.comwebsite at http://www.flysquirrel.net________________________________________________________________________________
