    Airplane For Sale SOLD: Estate Sale: 1981 Christen/Aviat Eagle II

    I PMed him the same thing hours ago. Haven't heard back so I am sure it's a scam.

    What can be done with an 0-235?

    There was a time when Rutan supported the o-235 on a varieze. It had no starter and was called the "air sport". Gary Hertzler's varieze (N99VE) has an o-235 and it is probably the best one out there.

    Did anyone listen to live Atc? It’s possible his new engine just went beyond TBO.

    He has not flown in 5 days. Is there a problem with the raptor?

    I am guessing there will not be another flight for at least a week.

    Vashon Ranger Problems

    I agree with you 100% on the prop (non) issue! That is clearly not an issue everything else seems to be a big problem to me. I would stay away from a ranger. I don't know if these issues are easy to resolve or else they would have been resolved and the guy wouldn't be trying to sell the plane.

    Vashon Ranger Problems

    Why can't you complain after signing a deal you regret? I am happy he is showing the agreement to the internet so it informs all of us. I think that agreement is insane but maybe the agreement is compounded by a really awful plane with a ton of problems. He probably regrets the whole thing...

    Is the (c)raptor now the industry standard for "bad"? I think you might be on to something!

    Vashon Ranger Problems

    You can look at any of the 10,000 or so planes that spend a week at oshkosh with unrelenting afternoon thunderstorms and realize that none leak this bad. My cozy doesn't leak at all and I have never seen any type of piper or cessna with pools of water in them so bad the carpets are drenched.

    This is really bad. If you go on the guy's website you will see so many problems with this design.

    Because after every single flight there has been some problem and something to "adjust". Maybe after he finds the right engine oil his problems will go away. That was where we were when he stopped doing the youtube videos.

    Kerlo posts on here regularly. He helped early on with the Raptor kit plane but is no longer involved. He is a true gentleman and a scholar.

    10/23 Raptor Video

    why can’t Peter’s “ethics” and “business plan” be talked about here? To me that is a big part of the raptor saga.

    10/23 Raptor Video

    He clearly talks about "transporting" the aircraft out west and making a multi-day trip out of it and documenting it. It starts at 17:30. I think he means flying it but maybe he means on the back of a truck. What would viewers find more interesting him trying to fly the raptor out west or...

    10/23 Raptor Video

    I am pretty sure if you called pan pan a controller would just treat you as an emergency or even declare you one. I have had emergencies declared for me over pretty trivial things like loosing an alternator.

    And now he knows we all listen to LIVE ATC so he may develop a hesitancy to use the words emergency.
