This auction is for 2 complete Riley Converted DA-16A Twin Navions and a treasure trove of related parts. These airplanes and parts belonged to one of my neighbors so I am quite familiar with their recent history. Work on these came to a standstill after previous owner acquired a lengthy illness years ago followed by a lengthy dispute among the heirs after his death. We have all appropriate legal documentation from the courts, there is no problem with titling or bill of sale. 

One, N130N, is a work in progress where great attention was paid to detail. This airplane has 2 rebuilt Lycoming O-340s with chrome cylinders, new interior, new or rebuilt landing gear. Looks like most wiring and plumbing are new. Panel appears new but is dated now, has new Loran! Will most likely remove the Mitchell nav-com only because it can fit another local airplane in need.  ............ even have another NIB Loran C that was to go into 701T. Has new?? tires with Cleveland wheels and brakes. All remaining parts seem to be there with part numbers and positions written on the part by previous owner

The other, N701T, is a mid to high time D16-A that was last annualed in 1996 and has been outside for most of that time and looks it but is in better condition than I thought it would be at first. ..... quite restorable. We had to reclaim it from the mud daubers and fire ants. Interior is old but looks quite nice. Has dual Terra radios with glide slope.

There are so many parts ..... new, used and salvageable that we can't list them all. There is 2 or 3 sets of new or rebuilt landing gear in the crates. These were either new or rebuilt  and came from a military depot in PA. Some new glass in boxes. Several nose bowls, 3 new. Another engine disassembled, more landing gear, control surfaces, 2 sets of tip tanks, engine mounts, exhausts, 2 fuel tanks, 2 nacelle tanks, several engine cowls with nose bowls, etc. Some more main and nose Clevelands but not a set. Gear doors, fairing, hydraulic parts, spinners ....... Both airplane have light weight starters and alternators.

There are many more pics and details available at  ....

We are willing to take offers on the whole lot or either complete airplane or parts. Any and all Navion related parts are what is for sale. So, anything that might be in a picture non related is not included. We may decide to separate the planes or parts but are trying to keep this as a whole at the moment. We are not knowledgeable Navion enthusiasts but just can't stand to see a piece of history trashed. I know these engines are sort of rare and need to stay with these airframes but I understand they were STC'd for the Cessna 170 so may have market there. I have had some inquiries from other Twin Navion owners and some experimental guys but want to keep all together for now.

These will need to be broken down for transport. I have talked with Atlanta Air Recovery and they will come disassemble BOTH airplanes and load on YOUR trailers for no more than $2000, or ONE airframe for no more than $1500 if engines are remove first. We will help you remove the engines.

Need any more pics or information just ask. You are welcome to come inspect them.

Any secure form of payment, with paypal deposit.

Someone asked today what the engine times were on N701T. I had them listed as mid to high times but I was looking at their total time. Log books show left engine has 813 hr SMOH, right has 109 SMOH
