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.

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. -------- Richard Pike Kolb MKIII N420P (420ldPoops) Kingsport, TN 3TN0 Forgiving is tough. Being forgiven is wonderful.
