I know that IVP and the hi= story very well. I offered my services but the owner declined. H= e even flew the plane for the first time after being worked on for over a ye= ar, with a cfi who had never been in a IVP. The plane was for sale fo= r nearly two years. Everyone who was interested declined even at a ver= y low price. A statistic waiting to happen.

I am not calling name= s, so in case he is a follower of the LML, he can take your advices.

This plane has tons of issues, as a matter of fact t= he Cfii told me that from the last 11 flights he had, 10 had emergencies, li= ke engine out, total loss of electrical power etc etc.

<= div>The plane has an OP technologies (old setup) avionics who is not working= right etc.

Above all this the owner is a low time p= ilot, and according to the CFII he is flying the plane with 2 hands on the s= tick because he doesn't know how to use the trim.

S= o when I was hearing this I was shocked and told him that he should first ge= t the plane checked out by somebody like Charlie Kohler and than fix it and t= han sell it.

The CFII told me that he already= told him this but that he was stubborn and doesn't want to sell.....

Now this is a next statistic waiting to happen and I real= ly feel bad, so what would you do?
