I checked out a partial build today claimed to be about 80% complete (& 80%
to go). It's a fast build kit; wings are still open, top panels of the
center section still open, not wired for auto pilot yet but east to get at,
removable header tank for easy access, rudder pedals need to be replaced
with adjustable, needs interior, fuel lines, magnetos (I'll go with
electronic), gear door installation, elevator trim wiring, paint and some
misc. parts, 0 time overhauled O-320 including Rotec Throttle Body
Injection, prop gov, new fuel pump, 0 time Hartzell HC-82VL-1 prop with
spinner (has an AD on the shank that needs to be inspected (cost unknown),
dual Narco digital comms, Narco 890 DME, Narco transponder, 7" TFT touch
screen running Mountain Scope, Narco Nav 11, audio panel with intercom, full
flight instruments, engine instruments and fuel management/gear panel,
ailerons still open, I'd estimate less than 20 degrees swing on the rudder
but he said the vertical fin trailing edge can be trimmed to adjust, left
rear window still out for easy access. All the workmanship appears to be
pretty good and I have a lot of composite experience so I think can judge
it. In my opinion I think it's probably a good winter project to finish it.
Any thoughts you may have on what else to look for/at would be appreciated.
