#139 | Online Airplane Shopping With Lee Griffing | Part 2 of 2
Looking to fly high with your own set of wings but not sure where to start? Get ready to soar as we unravel the complexities of buying an experimental home-built aircraft. From novice-friendly Aircoupes to iconic J3 Cubs, we rummage through various models, their unique features, and the hard-to-find parts that keep them airborne. We even delve into the auditory aesthetic of the propeller hum, a soothing soundtrack for the skyward journey.
We then switch gears to the realm of Piper Tri-Pacers and Globeswift aircraft, using a 1957 Piper Tri-Pacer as our specimen. This powerful bird, armed with a 150 horse engine, is up for grabs for a cool $34,000. We ponder over the pros and cons of buying such a whimsical machine and compare it with its pre-1980 and post-1980 counterparts. And let's not forget the all-important panel and manifold pressure gauge of the Tri-Pacer, a vital aspect for any potential buyer.
Rounding off this aeronautical adventure, we consider the much-debated purchase of a Cessna 150. With a 1974 model, equipped with an O200 engine, going over Time Between Overhaul (TBO) and listed for $37,000, we ponder on the cost-effectiveness of this buy. Unearth the potential insurance pitfalls and other possible aircraft options like the 1966 Cherokee 180, 1979 Warrior, and the 2021 Vans RV 9A. So buckle up, it's going to be a wild ride!
