Have spoken to a number of you who said you are coming so please ensure to click on the…[Read more]

I am gonna put on a 550
Bottom has 1200 hrs top will have 300 hr freshly IRAN 300 hr cylinder port and polished. Will come with standard pistons and 10/1 .
I think 30k a very fair price.
Also will have two two blade props. One current other not.-
The engine is a 520a from my south african plane its superior cylinders had calendared out. I did top overhaul with new ported and polished cylinders and the pistons might give higher compression. The prop is available twol would like 30k for engine, 2500 for the prop.
The engine should produce more hp than a stock 550f. At a fraction of the cost.

I have purchases the E. It is like an IKEA kit. My D model should arrive in Georgia in mid January. I think we can get the D flying in about a week.
The E will take 500-600 man hours ( i hope) The D will then become surplus.
All i plan to do now with the D is put an Aspen pro max to drive the century 2000 autopilot and an Uavonix tail beacon.

Engine has GAMI injectors and VAR crank.
Also will have some good avionics, garmin 430, engine monitor fuel flow guage. And a functioning century 2000autopilot,
I am entertaining offers. It will likely be…[Read more] -
Rocky Roquemore replied to the topic N418 in the forum Meyers 200 1 year, 10 months ago
They seem to think it is worth a lot more than i do. Was told the owner turned down 90k.
Meyers i think should bring more than bonanzas, but seemingly they do not.-
Gonna let that go. I just bought the 200e

Rocky Roquemore replied to the topic N418 in the forum Meyers 200 1 year, 11 months ago
If i buy it i will flynit.
My bet is it will not bring reserve.
50,000 is my top which would be 53,000 with commission. Maybe go to 55 including vig.
The plane cosmetically is in nice shape. -

Plane has apparently been sitting a long time.
But the owner recently spent a good bit of money on airworthiness items in preparation for sale. -

Rocky Roquemore replied to the topic N418 in the forum Meyers 200 1 year, 11 months ago
IA said paint very good, needs rubbing out.
Interior excellent
Engine seems good, compressions all good.
He gave plane a thumbs up.
Given engine time and avionics.
I thing 50k plus the vig is my choke point.

Rocky Roquemore started the topic N418 in the forum Meyers 200 1 year, 11 months ago
I am sending an IA to evaluate. I may bid on it. Not sure when the South African plane will make it to Georgia, but deal is done.
Might as well have two. If some one else is interested, i will defer on 418.
Will,post evaluation here.-
I found a higher time IO-550. Bought and a couple of overhauled cylinders.
Sending to Ly-con to do their magic. I have decided to bid more on N418 if i get it, i will determine which is the better airframe. I will put the 550 and MT propeller and sell the other with a serviceable spare engine. So standby, there will a bargan n a 200d soon.…[Read more]
