At $15,000 for overhaul over 2,000 hours that's $7.50/hr. With 400 hours remaining that's $3,000 value left in the engine which is precisely how much more they are asking for 081.<br><br>I don't care about the paint unless it affects the airframe integrity (corrosion). If it's a basic 172 we purchase it just needs to be functional and cheap. I understand if some of you feel otherwise.<br><br>The financing opportunity on 081 is good. It alleviates the need for a complex membership structure.<br><br>You know, I seem to remember that 081's engine was shipped out for maintenance not more than a year ago. Metal in the oil. Makes me wonder if they did an overhaul then. They couldn't have put 1600 hrs on it in less than a year, right?<br><br>-Steve <br><br>Sent from Windows Mobile Smartphone.</span><br><br><hr><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Tahoma; font-weight:bold">From: </span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Tahoma; font-weight:normal;">Bob Irving <rhirving@verizon.net></span><br><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Tahoma; font-weight:bold">Sent: </span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Tahoma; font-weight:normal;">Wednesday, April 15, 2009 5:58 PM</span><br><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Tahoma; font-weight:bold">To: </span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Tahoma; font-weight:normal;">'Eagle East Flying Club Core Team' <eefc-core@workingcode.com></span><br><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Tahoma; font-weight:bold">Subject: </span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Tahoma; font-weight:normal;">081 proposal from EE</span><br><br><div class="Section1"><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">According to Sean tonight 081 could be purchased for 38,000 with 15% down and 8.5% for 60 months. 081 has about 5750 TTAF and 1600 SMOH on the engine. I have no idea what it has for equipment nor do I know the condition. I do not know anything about the history or logs. We all know it desperately needs paint which is a 10-12,000 cost and substantial down time on the aircraft – maybe 2 months. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p><p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Let me know your thoughts on this.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p></div></body></HTML>
