carusoam Posted March 25, 2021 Report Posted March 25, 2021 Welcome aboard JG! Let me send Tom a note... letting him know you are asking.... @Yooper Rocketman Best regards and standby, -a- 1 Quote
Skates97 Posted March 25, 2021 Report Posted March 25, 2021 I'm a believer that it's just as if not more important to pre-buy the seller than pre-buy the plane. With Tom selling it I wouldn't have any reservations about buying it. 3 2 Quote

Yes but I have a buyer from Texas pretty far along on the process (has all logs, STC's and 337's), and last oil sample. He's submitted for all the documentation from the FAA, quoted insurance, has been in daily contact with me and already discussed options for coming up to close and fly it home. I'm kind of an old school guy so not demanding a down payment to hold it. I have another from the DC area interested if the current deal doesn't close. If you want more infomation I guess I can provide it but I wouldn't sell it without the current interested buyer having an opportunity to close on it first. Tom 1 Quote

Yooper Rocketman Posted March 27, 2021 Author Report Posted March 27, 2021 Updated; Sale Pending. Looks like it's going to Texas and if the stars align (weather) the new owner will get some Lancair IVPT time on his trip up to the U.P. to get it! Tom 1 1 2 Quote

Money well spent for a chance to take a ride in that rocketship! And hopefully to hear some stories about his best friend that might help me be a worthy new owner of the airplane. 5 Quote
