Moved here for the job and I love flying. I've been flying GA for several years but sold my plane a while back. I would like to find something I can take home each day after flying and save the hanger rent. I'm interested in the Mark 3 X with a 912(used to the engine) but would consider other aircraft. If anyone is from the area I would love to meet up and buy a cup of coffee.

It is a STOL airplane that is not real fast. I think they advertise that a MKIIIX can be folded up in 15-30 minutes but it is a hassle that most of us don't do every time we fly. If you do you will not fly much. Setting it up takes longer because you need to make sure everything is right. I used to have a private short strip next to my home with a hanger and that was ideal. It pains me to say I moved and now keep it at a local airport. For a few years I folded the plane, loaded it in my enclosed trailer and hauled it home in Michigan for the 6 months I spend in Florida. Any way now I fold the plane up for the winter in the shared hanger for reduced rent. One winter I pulled the plane to Florida with my Toyota Sienna but that was a real pain pulling that long trailer. It added a day to traveling time and hanger space in Florida is more than twice the Michigan cost so it stays home now.

Standard 8.8 metric hex head. I order from my bolt supplier in lots of 25 so I have three sets left. The shank is 2.85" long. Each set is complete with AN 960-5 washers and your choice of flanged or regular nylock jam nuts. $13 a set includes shipping.
