I'm looking to find a new home for this Clipper.
I purchased this in 2016 from an IA who worked at the flying club I earned my PPL. He had rebuilt this aircraft at Loch Haven in 1989 and owned it until I bought it in 2016.
For the last 2 years I've put 200 hours on this plane and really enjoy it. The last trip I took was to Augusta, GA from my home airport in Petersburg, VA (13-14 Nov 2018. I also used this for my long commercial XC and flew it over 500nm earlier this year in July 2018. I still fly it on a regular basis and it has averaged about 8 hours a month. Note: Will continue flying most weekends until I find a buyer because we still use it to take breakfast flights and trips to Georgia and North Carolina.
So the only reason I'm selling is to find something a bit more suited for my current mission. (XC's, speed, and IFR capable.)
I've included a list below of anything I can think of that has been done to the plane since I purchased it.
I'd like to list it in a community that understands these planes, works on these planes, and desires this type of aircraft.
It isn't the most beautiful aircraft but it is solid and I feel very confident when I take it on long and short trips or just around the patter for some pattern work during windy days.
* In 2011 the owner recovered the left wing and replaced ribs. Did the work himself (IA) and signed off on the logs (photo attached.) I can't find the 337 for this work in 2011. I've ordered new FAA records to ensure I didn't loose it with the first set I ordered. It's been flying and I've flown it 200 hours and no IA has said anything about it. However, it should be mentioned.
List of things done since I purchased:
TSMOH ~ 1200
TTAF ~ 1900
Replaced engine mount 2016
Prop over haul by Sensenich 2106
Replaced both exhaust collector 2016
Voltage regulator 2016
Replaced landing gear bungee 2017
Overhauled both Mags 2017
Starter overhaul 2017
Oil filter adapter B&C 2017

Transponder inspected 2018
Last Annual Aug 2018
