Got a beautiful Mark III classic; bought another plane so this one needs a new
home. Great condition, ready to fly! Rotax 670 with plenty of power. PM me
and I can send a ton of photos and happy to discuss.

Not interested in buying your airplane - I already have one that I am very happy
with - but tell us about the 670: How many hours? How much power? Rate of climb
solo and 2 up? Fuel burn @ rpm & airspeed? (s) What sort of prop? Climb @
rpm & cruise @ rpm. The important stuff. The more you tell the better we like
it. What could we expect if we got one?
Eventually I will be replacing my faithful 582, and if 670's are faithful and worthy,
I might be considering one of them. Thanks.

Forgiving is tough. Being forgiven is wonderful.
