Aircraft comes complete with STC for flying with the door removed, so it would make a great platform for aerial photography, parachute jump operations, or if you want to pull a Trevor Jacob (not recommended). We purchased the plane in '23 from a friend, and put quite a few upgrades into it including an electronic EC-1 EGT and CHT display, Reiff engine heater, LED landing and taxi lights, and Stratus oil filter adapter (increasing oil change time to 50hrs from the 25 with just the screen). We also had a bunch of touch up items fixed including rebuilding the nose strut, replacing the left muffler, installing a new carb heat cable, right fuel quick drain, and a flex fuel line. In the past few years before us, new brake lines were installed, new aileron cables installed, and many other improvements and small fixes accomplished. This plane has wanted for nothing between the last owner and ourselves, and is ready to find a new home where she will be used!
The airframe logs we have are complete from '58-'75, and from '95-present day. The logs from '76-'94 are missing, but there is no history of accident or incident on any database we could find (please look!) and the aircraft shows no sign of accident damage. The last 30 years of logs are available upon request to serious inquiries only!
This plane flies straight and true, and has been a sweetheart for us, it’s just time to move on to something faster! She’s no show pony but proves herself mechanically every day. She would be a great time builder for low time pilots as well, or shes ready to turned into a monster taildragger with an O-470 and Alaskan Bush wheels.

Interior Condition
The interior was recently done by the last owner and is in great shape with all new upholstery, and a clean panel! The only portion of the interior left is the headliner, pictures included.

Exterior Condition
In all honesty it looks great from afar, and if you squint real hard it looks great up close. But man is it thick, surface rust is afraid of this airplane and decided to leave it alone. Personally I give the job a cosmetic 6/10 but I also judged a childrens talent show and let’s just say there were tears. If you want a rugged and durable airplane that isn’t afraid to get a little dirty in the back country this is the paint job for you.

Sept. 9, Nashville, Tenn. / Douglas DC-9-31
At about 11:38 CDT, a TWA DC-9 had its landing gear separate on rollout at Nashville International Airport. Three passengers were treated for minor injuries. The First Officer said he turned final and his sink rate was 600 to 800 fpm. The airplane touched down hard on the right main landing gear, which surprised him and the PIC. The PIC immediately got on the flight controls with him as the airplane bounced. On the second impact he felt a vibration, and it became evident that they had a directional control problem. The left wing started to settle and made contact with the ground. The captain said that, right before touchdown, he knew the first officer was not going to make a good landing. Th...
