$14k 336 in FL - IN ANNUAL!
 
1695 TT airframe and engines. May be the original motors from 1963!!! Rear engine not running, he thinks its the mags: https://www.trade-a-plane.com/search...type=aircraft#

That's a good candidate for an "Bush 336." Put some fat tires on it with a field approval, slap a Horton STOL kit on the leading edge, and go have fun.

Its a good candidate for a multiengine time builder too. Once you get your ME rating, Skymaster time goes into the "multi" column just like all the other ME airplanes!

What would the fuel burn be with both motors pulled back to 2200 rpm? Maybe 16 GPH?

Depends on the MP. The 337 POHs have an entry for 2200/18" @ 12gph. I don't see why you can't do that with the 336.

100ll is $2.99/gal near me, so you could build multi time for $36/hr, plus oil and airframe. Pretty inexpensive, especially when you got the airframe for $14k!

Oh my - But the engines are old and scary! "That's why you have two, mam". :cool:

Both engines were overhauled before the VAR crank AD. I'm guessing that the way to have this plane make sense is to buy it, fly it until you HAVE to open a case, and then part it out. You'd probably manage under $100/flight hour all-in if you can assist with annuals.

1695 TT Airframe and engines - what makes you think they've ever been overhauled? Those cases haven't been open since the Kennedy administration!

They're time capsules!

This link is not working....do you have details or a revised link? Please and Thanks

Post is gone; looks like it sold (quickly.)

mshac 11-19-20 01:29 PM

SOLD SOLD SOLD!!!

I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did. I'd have given $14k for it if I had it laying around, I knew someone else would too!
