I don't sell data plates , I destroy them , I can not think of any legal reason someone would buy a data plate..... I can see building a P51 around a data plate , not a Mooney...

Looks like you don't have the gadget that holds open baggage door, or I'd say that too. Send contact info , I have a baggage door prop laying around I think from another donor...

It was orgional to the airplane. Finally, was out of limits at overhaul 2 years ago. My blades are from 67 and still passed. I wouldn't want that prop unless I was going to hang it on the wall. -Matt I don't condemn parts I know nothing about , you see I know nothing about that prop , so I am 100% sure you know absolutely nothing about it...... It will go to a prop shop and get checked out..... A good blade is worth 800 to 1000 dollars ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marauder Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 He is begging me to take it , needs the hangar space... Might get a handy in the process... I hope you get it out of there soon. I'm headed back over this weekend. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have zero interest in building a plane and I doubt the FAA would consider it legal if I tried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't want to pay shipping on a bunch of scrap paper anyway. But now that you mention it, I'll bet Bill Wheat's signature is somewhere on the first couple pages of the airframe log. Would you consider including that page? That would look really nice next to the data plate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marauder Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 Chris it was nice seeing you today...... Same here. Good luck with the E. For those wondering, this E, even if it was the first is way, way, way beyond bringing back. It sat on grass for years and years.

Just a solid wall up from the back of the baggage area to the ceiling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
