Well, I guess it's time. I'm offering my Skybolt to the forum members before I go on the open market with it.
It's been a great Biplane and I hate selling it. The Hiperbipe has replaced it. Wish I could keep it along with the Hiperbipe and Stinson.
Asking $39,500 and will consider reasonable offers.
Completed in 1977, TTAF 622 Engine TT SMOH 973.31
Empty weight: 1209.7 lbs
I've just removed the 3 blade Performance Prop and installed a freshly OH Hartzell HC-C2YK-4CF Aerobatic Propeller 0 TT SMOH (just overhauled with "B" hub) and Hartzell governor PN F6-3A just OH.
Mechanically, I'd call it a 9, aesthetically I'd call it a 7.
I will be flying it, I have to fly the 5 hr test time off, and will probably fly a little more. Haven't flown it much the past year due to travel, flying the Stinson & Hiperbipe and flying test time off on my buddies Skybolt.
It will be missed...
I may be able to include a Strong 304 Seat Chute. It's over 20 years, but if you send it to Strong, they'll inspect it on condition. It's in great shape.
IM me and I'll send a Data Sheet for additional info. Log book pics available.
