Hi CommanderLanders!
The Commander 560A on eBay (N2774B) was orginally Certificated in December 1955,
with 275HP GO-480-D1A engines.
In September 1967 it was up-graded to a Model 560A(HC), by installing 295HP
GO-480-G1B6 engines.
The eBay narrative implies it has 275HP GSO-480 engines. These are Supercharged
and I have no record of them being fitted to this 560A, although it is of course
possible.
Aircraft's serial number is 274, currently registered to Frank G Welch, of
Woodinville, Washington.
I haven't been 'around' for a while. Firstly, AOL blacklisted the server I use
for email. My ISP then set up a new server to circumvent this problem in
mid-November. When I got the email facility back, I could receive email, but not
send any! At long last, the problem was fixed yesterday!
Anyway, I hope you all had a really nice Christmas, and I send all Best Wishes
for 2004.
Very Best Regards,
Barry Collman

A happy and very prosperous new year to you all. I had a great time listing
with fellow commanders. We pretty much had one of the worst years in our
business' 29 years existence, but the cause for celebration is that we are
all still healthy and managed to keep the doors open and some of the lights
on. There has been a roof over our heads and food on our plates. So, all was
not bad.
With 2004 at the door, it appears to have a good glow in the cheeks. I
cannot but thank our Lord for the blessings and the refinement that came
from affliction. And, of course, that we have a president who had the
cahoneys to lower taxes when not many believed it will make a difference.
For what it is worth, he has my vote for many more tax-lowering in the new
year.
Nico

N2774B was based at S43 (Harvey Airfield, Snohomish, WA) until very
recently)...it may still be based there but is not there at the moment.
Plane was "freshened up" with spot paint and stripes in the last 18 months...
Plane flew occasionally, I would guess 1x per month, owner "ran it up" on the
ramp at the times that his schedule did not permit actual flight.
Exterior 5.0
Interior 5.0
I would say it is a steal at anything under 50K

HI KIDS.
I know something about this airplane, Two years ago, it had one
GO-480-D1A, 275hp and one GO-480-G1B6, 295HP. I talked to the owner about the
problem (he was looking for a propeller solution). The airplane has been both
a
560A and a 560A(HC) The logs are, well, edgy. I have no idea what is
currently installed now but you better find out. The ad stated it is "in annual"
so I
suppose he figured something out?? Or maybe not?? He said it was a little
squirrely on TO. I wonder why with an extra 20 hp on one side. Be informed, Be
careful, good luck. jb

Eeek! It's rather hard for me to imagine that someone would have been
flying that!
JB, what ever happened to that poor old 560 that was near you - the one
with the pretty panel but some corrosion...? Anyone ever give her a new
home and some tlc?

HAPPY NEW YEAR CHRIS!! I don't remember which 560 you are talking about.
Give me another hint. There is a straight 500 parked at the Troutdale airport.
It is a pretty nice airplane but suffered a gear up start a couple of weeks
ago. The owner swears the handle was down and is telling everybody that the
gear collapsed because the hydraulic pressure had not got to the gear but the
brakes were holding, RRighTT!! Anyway, not to much damage was done, a prop
strike and some small wrinkles in the belly. Hope all is well with you this new
year my friend!! jb

Jim,
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Our 560 (N295V) is
undergoing the annual inspection and is almost done. The mechanic ask about
the brakes (Clevelands) and said that he talked to an FAA inspector here in
Florida that would sign off a 337 on the brake installation. As soon as we
get it, I'll fax you a copy if you still need it, just give me a fax number.
Leon
