Shopping for a Super Cub now. When the time comes to travel to the potential aircraft to buy, I would like to network with members in that geographical area for tips on helping with the pre buy inspection.
I am not an A&P but have some experience working on aircraft, including Cubs. I know enough to get help looking at a aircraft I may purchase.
Is there a way to get a geographical listing of members to reach out to via PM messages if I find a Cub in their area I am interested in? It would be helpful if a member (not necessarily an A&P) might have time to assist with an inspection. That is a lot to ask, I realize. I would be willing to pay for this assistance as part of a responsible buying procedure for an aircraft. Any help with local contacts for shops, A&P's, IA's, perhaps some knowledge of the particular aircraft all helps with the process.
I may have missed a procedure to search members geographically. It may be a privacy concern also and I don't mean to tread on that issue.
Thanks much for any and all help,
Tim Gaffney
