A while ago, Dan introduced a really nice, concise, place from which to obtain weather information. I had forgotten how nice it was....and I for one really appreciate it....and of course I acknowledge all of the normal disclaimers. For those of you who haven't yet checked it out.... http://www.rvproject.com/wx/
Thanks Dan.

| Subject: | possible -6A for sale |
--> RV-List message posted by: "Aircraft Technical Book Company" <winterland@rkymtnhi.com>
I'm considering selling my 6A, but I'm not really sure what its worth. Its
got:
180 hours TT on the Airframe
0-360 A4M (1150 SMOH)
fixed prop
VFR panel with EI engine monitor
new Lightspeed ignition on one side, new slick mag on the other
good condition in and out
never damaged, always hangared
...and plenty of little things too long to mention here
I'm thinking of selling cause I just don't fly it enough to justify the time
and expense. My hundered dollar hamburgers are becoming thousand dollar
hamburgers.
Anyone want to chime in about approximately what it's worth?
I'm also curious about what it typically being done to deal with the
liability issue of selling an experimental aircraft. I figure, I'd include
in the sale a fresh annual by someone other than myself. Is this enough?

Compare your plane to others listed for sale in Trade-A-Plane. If
you're an AOPA member, you can pick a factory-built that closely
resembles a fast two-place airplane, add the radios and see what their
appraisal program spits out. This will give you a starting point.
The problem is, most of the appraisal sites do not track experimentals
..... and if they do, they're really way off. the other problem is
(generally) that the airplane probably is worth more to the owner than
to someone shopping for a plane, so be prepared to be disappointed.
You'll probably find that the airplane will sell close to what you have
invested ..... without all the labor etc. If you bought the airplane
already built, you might get a little more than you paid for it .....
but realistically not much more since the engine has reached 1/2 of it's
TBO.

You shouldn't have looked at the expenses that close. Better to remain
ignorant like I do. Blissfully ignorant!

Leave all the stuff off that you removed to do the conditional
inspection .... cowl, tips (if they're not riveted on) seats and
anything else ..... prop and wheels too ..... and sell the airplane as
aircraft parts. You might surrender the N# if you're really paranoid,
but that's not necessary. If you go that route, you may just explain to
the buyer that he MAY be able to get the airplane inspected and get a
builder repairmans certificate. I heard that some were doing that but
be aware that the FAA frowns on inaccurate information (OK, I'm being
nice here). Anyway, you get the picture. The buyer is purchasing an
unairworthy airplane and you should take pictures with the buyer and the
airplane parts ..... and then help him put it all together.

Well, sounds like you built it (if you can do the conditional inspection
(not an annual ..... semantics at work here) ..... but you may do the
inspection with the new buyer present so he can learn everything he can
so he can maintain it himself. That, to me, is a great selling point.

| Subject: | possible -6A for sale |
--> RV-List message posted by: "Robin Marks" <robin@mrmoisture.com>
One of the very best ways to get a "market price" for your RV-6A is to
properly advertise it on eBaY. I have purchased and sold many large
items on eBay including 4 airplanes and in my opinion it is about the
best way to expose your plane to the largest number of people with an
interest in buying a plane. You can set a reserve price below which you
will not be obligated to sell your plane. I guarantee that a 6A will
generate a fair amount of interest and that you will have extended
conversations with interested parties about purchasing your plane. This
is also an excellent time to offer your 6A as we are just entering
flying season for the entire US.
When I say "properly" advertise your RV that means plenty of pictures!
Buyers want to see everything. To do this you should have proper
lighting and the right environment to take the (digital) photos. A well
shot plane can get more than it is worth while a poorly shot plane may
not get any attention. I hate to say it but people buy based on emotion
so the better the paint job the higher the price. A well written
description that blends the features of the plane along with the emotion
associated with owning the plane will both reduce the number of emails
requesting additional information but may also hook the prospective
buyer.
Good luck,

I have been using the RVPROJECT.com WIRELESS version on my web enabled cell
phone. The wireless RVPROJECT also has an N number lookup so you can find
out who owns that RV on the ramp you just parked beside.
Go try that one out when you are on a trip. Works great if you have cell
coverage when you land.
Thanks Dan.

FYI, some "high tech" web-enabled handsets try to open up the regular web
site. If you enter the URL "rvproject.com" in your handset and it does
this, you can try forcing it to open up the wireless version by typing in
the URL "rvproject.com/wapindex.wml".
Also note that the web version has NOTAMs now, and a link to FAA published
TFRs. I will probably add NOTAMs to the wireless version at some point.
