I have decided not to sell this bird.

Mark, potential buyers will want to know if this is an early Colemill conversion with IO-520E's or the later one with IO-550E's. You have a beautiful 310 either way!

Thanks
Fixed it I also forgot to put in new non AD heater

Unfortunately, this will be long gone by the time I'm ready to buy (3-4 months). Someone will be getting a fantastic 310.

Where is it located?

I am between 20GA in Villa Rica Georgia and 2M8 in Memphis. I go back and forth.
I am torn. This is a wonderful bird that has NEVER let me down in the 5 years I owned it. If the Boss didn't want more room I would keep her forever. Being an A&P i have put a lot of work in her to make it the way I want her.

I see 172s going for 90k, at 130 this is a ton of airplane for the $

Especially as a /G FIKI

Good luck on the sale, pretty plane

Beautiful bird! Looks like you have it configured for 4 seats, do you have the other 2 seats? Thanks

It isn't FIKI. Only certain late R models are FIKI (1975 and later?).

It is "full deice" which usually means boots on wing and tail and heated props. It doesn't usually mean windshield deice plate (that was only on FIKI birds). I don't know if alcohol windshield spray was an option, might have been.

As a practical matter, "full deice" will get you out of mild or inadvertent icing as well as a FIKI bird. The official FIKI status is really only a legal thing since effectively you would always seek to leave icing conditions with either a FIKI or full deice airplane. In effect, no operational difference.

If you depart into known or forecast icing, the FAA could get on your case about not having FIKI, but they only seem to do that when there are other factors, like an accident, to draw their attention.

not FIKI and yes have the other seats.
The prices on planes are ridiculous and people, in my opinion are asking way too much and not being realistic. If the engines were low time I would ask more but I am being realistic and believe I am pricing it accordingly with the engine times.Mark

Amazing how much airplane you can get for $130k.

yes....and it'll fit in a 40' hangar.

If you have decided not to sell this airplane then why was it just listed on barnstormers a couple days ago? This is confusing.
