He is working on reskinning the outside third of the left wing as we speak. It makes me SO mad to have to pay to have this stuff fixed when I could do it myself if I knew an A&P well. Glad I have 2 partners because this C150 is getting really expensive!!!! (of course, if I was doing the work it probably wouldn't get done for years!!!!).

I'm still trying to decide what to do in the long term for all these dang planes that I have laying around. One of the things I have to consider is the possibility of selling the RV-3 later this year, when I get the Kolb flying. I just can't decided if there's any market for a rotary powered RV-3 though.

Greetings,

I think the Bellsouth email is working now, so let's see.

I'm still trying to decide what to do in the long term for all these dang planes that I have laying around. One of the things I have to consider is the possibility of selling the RV-3 later this year, when I get the Kolb flying.   I just can't decided if there's any market for a rotary powered RV-3 though. I'm guessing that my plane would sell for $25K-$30K with a reasonably fresh 160 Lycoming in it.   I wonder how much the rotary engine would affect that price? I'm guessing that it would just be a matter of finding the right buyer, which could take a while. Don't know that I'd be in any hurry though.

Again, just thinking about the options.   Hey Ken P, did you ever get your technically un-airworthy Cessna home?

Cheers,
