I didn't think so, but what the heck.   Asking $34k.  Roomier inside than a 150.

   If you're a pilot and can't get past the medical exam these days, maybe a motor glider is the answer.  Cruises at 100 knots, uses 2.2 gallons per hour (I use 91 Ethanol free).

Trish isn't really into it so my retirement dream of cruising the scenery, visiting different places ain't happening.  Probably because she had to ride with me to work everyday ....

How come only the pilot gets to shoot off the missiles?

My wife doesn't even like riding in the Manic Miata, though she like driving just fine.

I can't imagine the litters of multi-colored kittens she'd have flying around with me in that thing.  GLWS!

I will mention this to my dad and my brother. 

Is it equipped for night operations?

From looking at the panel I assume that it is not approved for IFR. Is that a King kx 155 radio?

Does it burn 100LL?

What is the empty weight? And what is the gross weight?

If my medical certificate had not been revoked I would be very interested. Good luck and I will mention this to every pilot that I see.

Yes, night Ops.

Not King, Garmin GNC 250XL

Burns 91 Octane Ethanol Free from local grocery store.

Empty = 1320

Gross = 1850

24:1 L/D, if the engine pukes you have so many more options.

 

Thanks Brandon
