DC-3 for sale, nice!

Just thinking about depressed prices with regards to age, fuel and fatigue. What’s the TBO on a Wasp? 1250 hrs SMOH seems a bit high to me.

In the Q & A section CJ states 1600hrs life.

cheers baz

Ooh nice Dakota,and on ebay! My dad flew these in the war,he would tell me how they were the only plane to flap its wings like a bird.

Highest offer of $65,000 was declined!:(

If you thought you missed it the first, second or third time, it has now been relisted, just that little problem of location!

“840 remaining hours before wing attach angle replacement”

So, how much would this item set the prospective purchaser back?

At a “Buy now” price of $88.000 it seems strange it didn’t sell. Not that I’m an expert in DC-3 pricing, but most that I have seen, have been 3 times that.

Guess that even at 88.000 its a bit of a mouthfull, considering what operation of a DC-3 involves. It ain’t no Stearman.

Unsold, highest bid at $51,000, don’t understand why it didn’t sell?:confused:
