After three years building and five years flying my RV-8, I have decided to
move into Light Sport aviation.
I will always cherish the memories of RV�s and all they have to offer.
After spending months researching Builder Liability Issues, I have decided
to donate Cappy�s Toy to an Aviation Museum.
The museum has offered to create an Experimental Aircraft Section featuring
Cappy�s Toy. It is heartwarming to know Cappy�s Toy will forevermore be
representing Experimental Aviation, and that I have found a good home for
her.
The museum has agreed to accept Cappy�s Toy without the engine, engine
accessories, NAV/COM GNC 300XL, transponder GTX 327, autopilot Trio Avionics
EZ Pilot and 5 point airline type seat belts.
The expected delivery date is September 15, 2008.
In addition to a tax deduction, the sale of these items will enable me to
re-coup some of the losses incurred from not selling the airplane outright.
If you are interested in a proven complete functioning power plant package
with less than 450 hours for your project, or any of the other items, please
give me a call.
