As I approach my 90th birthday, I think it is time to give up flying & sell my 1965 150E. Besides, it is becoming more and more difficult to squirm into the seat. My main problem now is determining a fair price for my flitting machine of some 36 years. I've attached a photo of the plane & the new instrument panel. It is IFR equipped. The 1990 paint job is still good but the cockpit needs work (new headliner, rugs, plastic refinishing). Here is a list of features:
Total time 3385 hours Engine: 635 hours since remanufactured by Continental Long range tanks: 40 gal total Heavy -duty nosewheel Shoulder harnesses Narco Nav-Com Mark 12D with glide slope Narco Navigation Indicator & DME IDME 891 Terra Communication Transceiver TX720 Terra Navigation Receiver with glide slope TN200 Terra Navigation Indicator TRINAV RST Marker Beacon Receiver RST-521 King Transponder KT-76A Transcal Altitude Encoder D120-P2-T Narco ADF 141 Narco ADF Indicator 101 Heavy duty Alternator, 60 Amp, 12 volt Electric starter switch (replaces original manual pull ) Strobe Light-Tail Whelen SA,CF New updated instrument panel & gyros Fuses replaced with circuit breakers
A local pilot offered $14,000 but that seems rather low to me. I would appreciate somebody giving me a ball-park figure so I can negotiate with some knowledge of a reasonable price. It is located in upstate NY.
