Currently no inverted oil system but I am happy to work with the buyer to get this installed if required as it is a relatively cheap and easy modification to have installed. (I was going to have this installed myself and have all of the details but never got around to it).

Ideal Intermediate level aerobatic machine with very responsive yet docile handling characteristics and surprisingly pleasant to land.

Recently had new a permit and happy to apply new permit again upon sale.

Needs for nothing, a very attractive plane which is structurally, cosmetically, and mechanically sound and ready to be used.

Kept in a dry hangar all year round with heaters inside. Viewing welcome the plane is hangared at EGCL.
