Hey Guys,
Have been pretty busy as of late and not much time for CFS3 but hope that will change soon. I did want to show you an aircraft that I just purchased it is a 177B Cardinal with a O-360 180 hp engine and constant speed prop. It has the ugliest paint scheme I have ever seen on a plane and will go in to the paint shop the end of June I have attached a photo of what it will look like when repainted. It has a new leather interior and the plane is currently undergoing a pre-buy and annual inspection, the IFR certification was just completed. I hope to have it home next week. With the CS prop the plane will cruise at 130 kts with a pretty decent fuel burn, a lot less than a C-182 and the C-180 I used to own. Here are some photos of the aircraft, note the factory zinc chromate corrosion proofing that was ordered as an option by the first owner. It looks like a military aircraft inside when opened up.
