COMFORTABLE SEATS WITH HEADRESTS
FLUSH OUTSIDE DOOR HANDLE

THIS NICE LATE MODEL M20F EXECUTIVE SUSTAINED DAMAGE WHEN IT WAS LANDED ACCIDENTALLY GEAR UP ON THE RUNWAY.
THIS IS IN GENERAL NOT GOOD FOR AN AIRPLANE, AND THIS ONE TOO SUSTAINED DAMAGE AS A RESULT. THE BIG SURPRISE WHEN I SAW IT MYSELF LAST WEEK WAS HOW LITTLE DAMAGE WAS SUSTAINED !!
THIS AIRPLANE DID SCRAPE ON IT'S BELLY, BUT MANY OF THE ITEMS THAT ARE GENERALLY DAMAGED WERE NOT ON THIS AIRPLANE BECAUSE IT HAD THE ONE PIECE BELLY MOD, NOT THE STANDARD THIN SKINS !!
UNFORTUNATELY, THE BELLY FIBERGLASS SACRIFICED ITSELF TO SAVE THE PARTS INSIDE AND WAS DAMAGED, SO IT WAS NOT RETAINED, AND IS NOT INCLUDED
THE DAMAGE TO THE AIRPLANE FROM THE GEAR UP APPEARS TO BE:
THE TWO SKINS BELOW THE WING ON EACH EDGE OF THE BELLY OPENING ARE SCRAPED (STANDARD DAMAGE), AS WELL AS THE MIDDLE FALSE BULKHEADS BENT SLIGHTLY FROM THE WEIGHT, (ALSO STANDARD DAMAGE)
WHAT IS NOT CUSTOMARY IS THE LACK OF DAMAGE TO THE ELECTRIC GEAR MOTOR AND ACTUATOR (NO SCRAPING OR DAMAGE), AS WELL AS NO DAMAGE TO THE ACTUATOR SUPPORT , WHICH ALMOST ALWAYS GETS HURT !!
THERE APPEARS TO BE NO FIREWALL DAMAGE, AND NO DAMAGE AT ALL TO THE WING FROM SCRAPING, NOT EVEN THE INBOARD FLAP HANGERS, WHICH AGAIN USUALLY GET HURT !!
BOTH NOSE GEAR DOORS ARE SCRAPED, BUT THE MAIN GEAR DOORS ARE FINE. AS THE GEAR WAS NEVER SELECTED DOWN, IT SUSTAINED NO DAMAGE, SO ALL 3 GEAR ARE GOOD !! THE ONLY OTHER DAMAGE FROM THE GEAR UP IS TO THE AREA OF THE TAIL CONE WHICH HAS THE STEP MOUNTED TO IT. 2 OF THE ACTUATING RODS IN THE BELLY ARE ALSO BENT
THE STEP SCRAPED, AND PUSHED UP INTO THE SURROUNDING SKIN, SO THERE IS A WRINKLE THERE. THERE IS NO OTHER APPARENT AIRFRAME DAMAGE AS A RESULT OF THIS INCIDENT (NOT AN ACCIDENT BY FAA GUIDELINES)
THERE IS NO DAMAGE TO THE VERTICAL FIN/HORIZONTAL ASSEMBLY, OR THE RUDDER OR ELEVATORS
IN ORDER TO TRANSPORT THIS AIRPLANE WITH IT'S ONE PIECE WING, THE RECOVERY PEOPLE DID WHAT IS STANDARD FOR THE MOONEY: THEY REMOVED THE TAIL FEATHERS, DRILLED OUT THE RIVITS AND REMOVED THE TAILCONE FROM THE FUSELAGE, REMOVED THE ENGINE AND ENGINE MOUNT, AND HAULED THE AIRPLANE SIDEWAYS ON THIER TRAILER, ON THE EXTENDED AND LOCKED DOWN GEAR !!
IT LOOKS ODD, BUT THIS IS A NORMAL METHOD OF TRANSPORTATION. DURING TRANSPORTATION, A HOLE WAS PUNCTURED IN THE LEADING EDGE OF THE RIGHT WING, ABOUT THE SIZE OF A QUARTER. THIS AREA OF THE WING DOES NOT CONTAIN THE FUEL TANK OR THE SPAR, AND ONLY SKIN WAS AFFECTED, NO RIBS OR STRINGERS.
ONLY A SMALL PATCH WILL BE REQUIRED, NOT A WHOLE SKIN REPLACEMENT. THE REST OF THE WING IS UNDAMAGED.
THIS AIRFRAME IS BEING SOLD WITHOUT THE PROP STRIKE LYCOMING ENGINE AND IT'S ACCESSORIES, BUT WITH THE UNDAMAGED COWLING, AND THE UNDAMAGED ENGINE MOUNT, PLUS THE OIL COOLER, AND ALL OF THE ENGINE CONTROL CABLES.
AS YOU CAN SEE, SOME OF THE AVIONICS, THE AUTOPILOT AND A FEW OF THE INSTRUMENTS WERE ALSO REMOVED, AND ARE NOT INCLUDED, BUT ALL OF THE INSTRUMENTS SHOWN, PLUS THE ENGINE/FUEL GUAGES, SWITCHGEAR, ETC. ARE INSTALLED AND INCLUDED.
THE FLAPS WERE REMOVED FOR TRANSPORTATION, AND ARE ALSO NOT INCLUDED. THE AILERONS ARE ON THE WINGS, AND UNDAMAGED
(SEVERAL ITEMS ARE MISSING, I KNOW. THE AIRPLANE WAS IN THE POSSESSION OF A COMPANY AT THE AIRPORT WHILE THE COMPANY CHANGED HANDS, SO THERE IS CONFUSION THERE.)
I TOOK THESE PHOTOS AND INVENTORIED THE AIRPLANE JUST LAST WEEK, SO WE KNOW THAT ONLY THE ITEMS WE HAVE LISTED ARE MISSING, NOT OTHERS)
SOLD WITH FAA BILL OF SALE, AIRFRAME LOGBOOKS, AND FAA AIRWORTHINESS CERTIFICATE.
THIS IS AN AIRPLANE, NOT A JUMBLE OF PARTS
PRICED AS A PROJECT AT LESS THAN THE VALUE OF THE WING AND TAIL FEATHERS, SO I CAN IMAGINE THAT SOMEONE MIGHT BUY THIS TO FIX UP (AND UPDATE) THIER EXISTING MOONEY
(THE WING FITS 1969 "F" UP THROUGH THE M20J/201 SERIES), BUT IT IS A NICE AIRPLANE, WITH A GOOD INTERIOR, AND GOOD PAPERWORK, SO IT SHOULD FLY AGAIN, ESPECIALLY AT THIS LOW PRICE.
LOCATED AT THE KERRVILLE AIRPORT, NORTHWEST OF SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS. WE WILL PAY THE STORAGE COSTS FOR 30 DAYS FROM THE END OF THE AUCTION
NICE PROJECT, CRAZY CHEAP PRICE !!
GOOD BIDDING !!
AS WENTWORTH AIRCRAFT IS LOCATED IN MINNESOTA, NOT……KERRVILLE, TEXAS…..…….. WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PERSONALLY ASSIST WITH THE REPAIR OR MOVING OF THIS AIRPLANE SORRY.
WENTWORTH AIRCRAFT DOES NOT OBTAIN REPAIR ESTIMATES, AS WE DO NOT REPAIR ANY OF OUR AIRPLANES. WE ONLY FACILITATE THE SALE OF REBUILDABLE AIRCRAFT TO THOSE DESIRING TO SAVE MONEY OR HAVE MORE AIRPLANE THAN OTHERWISE POSSIBLE FOR THE MONEY.
REPAIR OF ANY AIRCRAFT WILL DEPEND ON MANY FACTORS, SUCH AS AVAILABILITY OF USED PARTS, LABOR RATE OF THE REPAIR FACILITY, FAMILIARITY WITH THE AIRCRAFT, ETC. AND WE WOULD NEVER PRESUME TO ESTIMATE THIS NUMBER FOR A BUYER. BEWARE OF THOSE WHO OBVIOUSLY GIVE UNREALISTICALLY LOW "ESTIMATES" FOR THE REPAIR OF THE DAMAGED AIRCRAFT THEY SELL.
THIS ITEM IS BEING SOLD WITH A LOW RESERVE, THEREFORE WE FULLY EXPECT THIS LISTING WILL SELL TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER AT THE CLOSE OF THIS AUCTION, SO BID EARLY AND BID HIGH. THERE WILL BE NO CHANCE TO BUY THIS ITEM LATER!!
AS WE SET OUR BUY-IT-NOW SO LOW, MANY OF OUR AIRPLANES SELL BY THIS METHOD BEFORE THE END OF THE AUCTION. DONT WAIT TOO LONG HOPING TO SNIPE IT AT THE END, AND BE DISAPPOINTED !
WENTWORTH AIRCRAFT INC IS THE #1 VOLUME SELLER IN THE USED AIRCRAFT MARKET!
