REMARKS

The aircraft was purchased 7/90 with 500+ hours on a 1986 factory reman TSIO-360FB series. It was flown to 1750 hours (1800 hr TBO) before a field MOH and now has 859 SMOH, 640 STOH 570 SPOH & SBOH(comprehensive TD/inspection by Pacific Continental subsequent to minor prop-strike incident in 2000- VR crankshaft upgrade, reground camshaft, new case and rod bearings) Since the top was done only 80 hours prior and obviously not repeated, it couldnt technically be called a MOH, but you do the math. No airframe damage or prior history.

ANNUAL DUE: May 2010

ELT Battery due June 2012

PITOT STATIC DUE: December 2010

This aircraft has always drawn attention and compliments because of its slick gloss black color/unique look (I know of only two other aircraft in the 22 years that Ive been flying with a similar paint scheme). Except for when out of town where a hangar was not available, this plane has been hangared AND covered with homemade covers made of flannel since I purchased it. The stock "wing" antenna was removed/replaced with a belly mount (a low profile GPS antenna resides in its original place atop the fuselage) and the rotating beacon was removed/replaced with an approved fairing for cleaner look and aerodynamics wingtip strobes and vertical fin position light provide ample night visability. It recently had the fuel tanks removed and all hoses/seals replaced.All SBs and ADs have been complied with. SN 28R7803087
