Description
Beautiful 1947 Aeronca Chief, with A65-8 Continental engine t is not experimental, it is a certified airplane as the TC is still held by American Champion. The airplane has been restored in 1991, covered with ceconite. New radio, transponder and Ward wind generator. The airplane hasn't flown since 2021 due to sickness of previous owner, always hangared and taken care of. Engine is being inspected in a certified shop due to long inactivity. Major repair performed in 2017. Needs a new propeller as he actual isn't airworthy anymore. I'm selling as i moved abroad and can't take care of it as much as i want.
