For Sale Suggestions

[John Pavlick]

Guys,
 Here's an idea. We have a section on the NSRCA web-site for beginners.
Maybe that would be a good place to put some links / pictures of all of
these nice used airplanes that still have a lot of life left in them. I'd
have to agree about the shipping problem though. It's definitely a major
factor that affects the sale. I've seen some things that I would probably
have bought, but when I factored in the shipping cost, I told the owner to
try to sell it locally first. I've heard of people shipping airplanes using
Greyhound. Has anyone had success with this method?

  I've sold my fair share of pattern planes. The older ones (Like a Finess
or Dr Jekyll) sold for pretty much the cost of the original kit.  I think it
gets better if your a builder with an established name. But a used plane is
just that. Your asking the person to take a risk that you sheeted the wing
correctly, have the stab located right, etc etc. If someone doesn't know
your quality of building, they are just not going to pay much.
