I would not buy a 50k airplane with only 50k in the pocket. I plan spending 10k or less right in the beginning to have the plane like I want. I just don't have 100k to spend right now on a perfect airplane.
It will be inspected by a certified mechanic for sure before anything
I'm not a Cessna kind of guy. But a good deal on one for my first plane would be ''ok'' for a couple years. I really want a STOL kind of plane. I have access to good field behind my house for winter flying on skis and a dock for summer on floats. Lakes and river all over Quebec. Fishing, hunting, an my dream flying to Alaska for a year or two.
This PA-12 was in Ontario since 1969 (no salt).
I'm not in a big hurry. It's just that fall and economic situation is working with me.
Received more pics of the -12....
No pics of the floats yet....
