Greetings all,
With 50 years of flying under my belt, many trips and adventures across the US and Canada, 4 different planes, it's time to fold my wings and sell my RV.
-This is NOT AN ADVERT so any requests for info, at this point, will be ignored, sorry.
Factors-
-The weather here in Western NY is starting to get unpredictable with a flight demo iffy.
-I will be starting my A&P/owner assist annual Condition Inspection this coming week. Usually takes 2-3 weeks.
-We will be off to the sunny south early December returning around 4/1 and leaving the plane here.
-The home and used car market has softened, one might assume the same for aircraft in the spring.
When-
-Should I put it up for sale now with weather turning bad and the possibility that the potential buyer might only get to see it opened for inspection?
-Advertise as soon as the CI is complete (2-3 weeks)which might result in precluding a demo flight due to weather?
-Wait until Spring?
Where to market-
-There's the usual sites such as Barnstormers, etc.
-Then there's here on VansAirforce. I could be wrong, but's I think Doug's rules preclude, for the 30 day listing period, listing the plane for sale elsewhere.
Thank for your input,
Carl
