 |
|
A friend of mine is selling his Firestar, I have flown it and it is a nice little airplane, it has a good running 447 with 300 hours on it. I know the original builder, he did a good job on it. Somewhere during it's early life it suffered some leading edge damage on one wing, the L/E tube, and was properly repaired.
It still has the original paint and fabric, has gone through a couple owners prior to it's present owner, and is presently looking a bit less than sharp, but I think it needs only cosmetics and being owned by someone who has dope/fabric skills and wants to take the trouble to spruce it up. If I did not have my MKIII, I would get it.
Not sure if it can be made part 103 legal, it certainly flies like something that weighs less than 300 pounds. It does have hydraulic brakes. The BRS chute is out of currency and needs repacking but is included. It is located about fifteen miles south west of Johnson City, Tn.
Asking price is $6,500.00

That sure is a nice little airplane for the price. If I didn't
already have a plane I'd consider it, AND
woulda saved about 10 bizzillion hours of building. 
Speaking of which, I've been flying with the new doors and really
love it. It doesn't have that strange
uncomfortable sensation at fast cruise anymore, I do believe that I
can actually unfold
a sectional without it being sucked overboard. Maybe even faster now
but that has yet to be measured.
