I purchased this airplane a few months ago. I was not quite ready for this in my life but the opportunity was great. I am in need of a partner to help me finish it. It flew into ground effect once but the pilot/owner was not familiar with canard aircrafts and slowed to much to set it back down and the canard wing stalled. In the process the front landing gear hit hard and broke a couple brackets and damaged the door. The pilot/owner didnt have a current or renewable liscense for an unrelated incident. He decided to sell the engine and avionics, and I purchased the airframe. It need some going through, tlc, engine, avionics, and interior work. These are amazing planes and This one is a great way to achieve with less work, expense yet do it our way and do enough tasks to be the builder with the FAA. Send me a message and lets complete this dream together.
