I listed it on barnstormer.com tonight. I flew it today and it flies great but I need some room. I bought a Citabria last week and my wife suggested that a few things should go. http://www.barnstormers.com/listing.php?id=251414 I also have an enclosed trailer for this plane and a 2000 40' American Eagle motor home to pull it with! They are both for sale too. If you know someone who would like a really nice Firestar, point them my way. Thanks.
