Over the past few years I've gone through several major life changes, some
bad, some good, but the bottom-line is that I can no longer provide the TLC
needed for my Kolb and I won't be around long, so I need to sell it
quickly, so I'm putting it up at a bargain basement price:
MkIIIC -- N# 553RL (certified as an eLSA)
234 hrs TT Airframe, Engine & Prop
100hp Rotax *912ULS*
Always hangared
2 six-gallon tanks
Electric fuel pump
Airspeed gauge
EIS with engine info
BRS Chute (expired)
Intercom
Odyssey battery
3-blade *Warp Drive* prop
hydraulic disc brakes
Thomason stainless steel exhaust

Video showing the unfolding/folding of this MkIII:

Price: $17,000
This price *includes* a fully enclosed aluminum trailer (see photos).
=8B
The plane is located near Waller, TX (37XA : Skydive Houston).
Full-disclosure issues:
I have not flown it much in the past couple of years, so it does need some
TLC. Currently, the gap seal needs repair or replacement. The other issue
is that the original builder did a sucky job with the hydraulic brake
lines, and right when my life fell apart I had just torn up the aluminum
floorboard to get at the brake system (he riveted the entire floor!); I
never finished the brake repair or replaced the floorboard. Bottom line:
the plane flies very well, but without brakes you'll need to land it on
grass until you get the brakes repaired. I have flown it and landed on my
grass landing strip and used the grass taxiways without any issues with
stopping. (To be specific, the discs, pads, lines are all good; it just
needs a reservoir to be added, connect the lines and then an air purge. It
will also need a new floorboard.)
If you are handy and can address these minor issues, this would be a great
project. If you aren't into experimental aviation maintenance tasks, then
this might not be the plane for you.
If I can't sell it in the next 4 weeks, it will go back into hibernation
mode until I get back to town (at which time, I will try again to sell it).
Please contact me off-list.
