Vehicle description

1991 AVIAT HUSKY A-1, 1675 TTSNEW AF&E, 406 SMOH PROP, SUPER MINOR DINGS, NO P/S, CHEAP! THE HUSKY IS THE MODERN INTERPRETATION OF THE SUPER CUB IDEA. TUBE AND FABRIC, TANDEM SEATING, FOLD OPEN DOOR, ETC. EXCEPT EVERYTHING IS MODERN, EVERYTHING IS SLIGHTLY BEEFED UP, NOTHING IS OLD! DOUBLE PUCK CLEVELAND BRAKES SCOTT TAILWHEEL CLEAN, MODERN DASH LAYOUT FLY FROM THE FRONT GOOD SHOULDER HARNESS SEATBELTS FRONT AND REAR 180 H.P. LYCOMING CONSTANT SPEED HARTZELL PROP AND $400,000 NEW LIST PRICE, SO USED HUSKYS HOLD THEIR VALUE AND ARE IN HIGH DEMAND. THIS AIRCRAFT HAS ONLY 1,675 HOURS TOTAL TIME SINCE NEW ON THE AIRFRAME AND THE ENGINE! ORIGINAL AIRWORTHINESS CERTIFICATE GRANTED 11/7/1991 (ALMOST A 1992) AND WE HAVE COMPLETE AND CONSECUTIVE LOGBOOKS FROM DAY 1 TO CURRENT! THE ANNUAL JUST EXPIRED 11/1/2020, NOT A SITTER OR RAMP QUEEN. UNFORTUNATELY, THE PILOT GOT A LITTLE BEHIND THE AIRPLANE AFTER TOUCHDOWN AND THE AIRPLANE VEERED OFF THE SIDE OF THE GRASS RUNWAY AND INTERSECTED SOME SHRUBS WITH THE LEFT WING LEADING EDGE OUTBOARD. ADDITIONAL DAMAGE WAS TO THE LEFT FLAP TRAILING EDGE AT THE OUTBOARD (LITE) AND THE RIGHT ELEVATOR BALANCE HORN AREA. THE GOOD NEWS IS, THAT’S THE BAD NEWS! THIS AIRPLANE IS ALMOST COMPLETELY UNDAMAGED! THE LEFT WING LEADING EDGE HAS A NETAL REINFORCEMENT, NOT PLYWOOD, AND THERE ARE SOME SMALL DANT TO THIS LIGHT ALUMINUM SHEET. THE AREA WITH THE DENTS IS CONVENIENTLY CLOSE TO THE LANDING LIGHT BUCKET (THE BUCKET IS OK, AS ARE THE LED LIGHTS, BUT THE PLEXIGLASS COVER IS BROKEN), SO IT WOULD SEEM FEASABLE TO GAIN ACCESS TO THE DENTED PANELS THROUGH THE BUCKET AREA AND JUST PUSH THE DENTS OUT! THE FABRIC IS NOT CUT IN THESE DENTED AREAS, JUST SOME PAINT MISSING. THE LEFT FLAP IS SLIGHTLY BENT UP AT THE OUTBOARD TRAILING EDGE AND WILL REQUIRE REPAIR. THE RIGHT ELEVATOR IS BENT UP AT THE PROTRUDING FORWARD AREA AND OUTBOARD END AND WILL REQUIRE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT. IT IS PRESUMED THAT THIS DAMAGE HAPPENED AFTER THE INCIDENT, WHEN THE FRIENDLY AIRPORT PEOPLE CAME TO “HELP” RETRIEVE THE AIRPLANE FROM THE SIDE OF THE RUNWAY. I SEE THIS “AFTER” DAMAGE TOO OFTEN. THE HORIZONTAL STAB AND FLYING WIRES ARE NOT DAMAGED, AND THE LEFT SIDE ASSEMBLY IS ALSO STRAIGHT, IT WAS NOT INVOLVED! THE AIRPLANE DOES NOT SHOW ANY FURTHER DAMAGE RELATED TO THIS LOW SPEED, GROUND-ONLY INCIDENT! THE FUSELAGE AND ALL 3 LANDING GEAR ARE STRAIGHT! (THE AIRPLANE WAS MOVED WITH NO AIR IN THE TUBES, SO THE TIRES CAME OFF THE RIMS). THE TIRES THEMSELVES LOOK GOOD AND MORE IMPORTANTLY THE WHEELS ARE UNDAMAGED! THE RIGHT WING, FLAP, AILERON AND TIP ARE UNDAMAGED! THE LEFT WING HAS NO SPAR OR STUCTURE DAMAGE OUTSIDE OF THE LEADING EDGE DAMAGE SHOWN! ALL OF THE LIFT STRUTS AND JURY STRUTS ARE GOOD! THE FIREWALL, ENGINE MOUNT, EXHAUST AND COWLING WERE NOT DAMAGED! THERE IS NO DAMAGE TO THE HARTZELL CONSTANT SPEED PROP! THIS PROP WAS NEW IN 2002 AND HAS THE “B” HUB, NO AD’S APPLY TO THIS NEW STYLE PROP! THE ENGINE IS UNDAMAGED AND HAS THE SAME 1,675 SNEW AS THE AIRFRAME. THE INTERIOR IS IN VERY NICE CONDITION. ALL OF THE ENGINE AND AIRFRAME “STRIP” GUAGES HAVE BEEN REPLACED BY THE COMPLETE DIGITAL SCREEN EDM-900 CERTIFIED DISPLAY!. EGT/CHT SCANNER, TACH AND MANIFOLD PRESSURE, OIL TEMP AND PRESSURE, FUEL PRESSURE, FUEL FLOW AND TOTALIZER, FUEL QUANTITY, ALL IN 1 BIG RECTANGULAR DISPLAY, CERTIFIED AS PRIMARY FOR THIS AIRPLANE! FULL FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS ALSO INCLUDED. NO AVIONICS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS AUCTION (THEY WERE 1991 VINTAGE, NOT THE KIND OF COOL STUFF YOU CAN GET, AND DESIRE, TODAY). If you want to go back to the past, we have left the kx-155 tray wired and in the airplane, so you could slide your own units in easily. THIS AIRPLANE COULD HAVE BEEN FLOWN WITH JUST THE REPLACEMENT OF THE RIGHT ELEVATOR, BUT THE OWNER OF THE PRIVATE STRIP WOULDN’T ALLOW IT, SO THE AIRPLANE WAS CAREFULLY DISASSEMBLED AND TRANSPORTED INSIDE OUR ENCLOSED SEMI-TRAILER AND IS NOW WITH US HERE IN CRYSTAL MINNESOTA, JUST NORTH OF MINNEAPOLIS. LOGBOOKS FOR ENGINE, PROP AND AIRFRAME SINCE NEW. AIRPLANE FLIGHT MANUAL, LYCOMING AND HARTZELL OPERATING MANUALS, EDM 900 PiLOT’S GUIDE, 337’s, AD COMPLIENCE SHEETS, WEIGHT AND BALANCE, AND YEARS OF RECEIPTS! PLUS THE S.T.C INFORMATION FOR THE MICRO VORTEX GENERATORS WHICH ARE INSTALLED. AND THE FAA BILL OF SALE AND THE KEYS! LOCATED AT THE KMIC AIRPORT, CRYSTAL, MN., WE WILL STORE THIS AIRPLANE FOR 30 DAYS AT NO CHARGE. Loading help or containering is available at extra cost if you require it. THIS IS A QUICK BOLT TOGETHER AND REPAIR AIRPLANE, YOU WILL STILL BE ABLE TO ENJOY SOME OF THE SUMMER SEASON IF YOU HURRY! YOU CANNOT FIND A HUSKY NEAR THIS PRICE ANYWHERE BUT HERE! GOOD BIDDING!
