“This plane suffered a gear up landing a few years ago. The aircraft was not insured and has sat waiting repair. I purchased it to repair it, as it is an easy repair and a great candidate for restoration. Gear did not collapse... they were never extended. Minimal skin damage on belly only.” |

Vehicle description
1966 Piper Twin Comanche PA30B N114RS, SN: 30-1094 2,105 Total Time Left Engine: 451 SMOH : Right Engine: 2,105 SNEW Full Wing De-Ice Boots!
Avionics: Garmin GNS 430W - WAAS GPS, Nav, Comm (multi-volt) King KCS55A HSI King KX155 with glideslope King KI209 indicator with glideslope Piper Altimatic II autopilot King KMA24 audio panel King KT76A transponder Sigtronics SPA-400 intercom
This PA30B landed gear up due to pilot error. The gear system is undamaged and all gear doors are largely undamaged. Once gear door pictured scraped the ground at the aft edge, but appears to only have taken paint. Both engines had "sudden stoppage" impacting the runway. The plane was lifted and gear extended and towed to parking where it sits today. Both props are likely beyond repair (in my opinion). The damage to the belly skins in amazingly light. The flaps, cowls and wing tips are not damaged. The damage to the belly appears to only affect the skins and antennas. I did not pull any panels and inspect further, but the runway damage did not go into the ribs (anywhere that I could see). I bought this plane to repair for myself. I run a flight school and maintenance shop. My airport is no longer allowing me to do "heavy maintenance" as there is a new shop on the field (Allentown - Queen City KXLL). The aircraft is located at Lancaster Airport (KLNS). So I will sell the plane here, barnstormers, my website for gateway-aviation or part it out. This plane is worth a whole lot more in parts than I"m asking. This plane is listed at multiple places and may be removed at any time if sold elsewhere. Please call me with questions. I will be scanning the logs and linking them to my website. Call for details my cell is (610)972-7940.
The logbook for this plane are complete, but in poor shape. They have gotten wet somewhere prior to me purchasing it a few weeks ago. They are usable to prove the times are accurate. I would create new logs going forward. I am scanning all the books to make an electronic record, which I would then use to with new logs, and keep the old logs to prove the electronic logs are correct.
Lastly, you will see a small dent in the bottom of the left wing in the left picture. This does not appear to be from the gear up accident. I do not know what it is from, but I do not believe it is anything to be too concerned about.
You will see planes like this sold by Wentworth with engines and radios removed for nearly the same price I"m asking ($25,000). Search old ads, this is a steal!
If you wish to disassemble and ship, I am able to help (we recover planes for the insurance companies). I will disassemble and ship at cost. Discounted along east coast if its on my way to Florida.
