Experimental composite 4 seat pusher in an incomplete condition.  This plane is similiar to a Cozy or a Velocity plane but it is built to be pressurized  to 18,000 feet with 3/8th windshield glass.  This plane comes with an overhauled IO360 Lycoming fuel injected engine manufactured by Teledyne with 1,000 hours on it.  The propeller is a Hartzell 2 blade constant speed that is a new overhaul, no hours. This prop is off of a Lake plane.  The seats are made by Recaro and the custom retractable landing gear made by Jim Ryan with drawings to make the gear stationary, this includes 3 tires, wheels and brakes.  Included in the auction is a box of new basic aircraft instruments.

The plane is located at the Long Beach Airport in California. It is the responsibility of the buyer to pay for and arrange pick-up of the plane.
